Memphis where the hell is memphis

Memphis where the hell is memphis

I got to get away study my geography

I'm just a shadow of the boy I used to be

I used to see the light now its all a mystery

I used to feel the beat now I feel a million miles from

Memphis where the hell is memphis

I used dirty words never too excessively

But saying rockandroll never seemed so bad to me

I dare said it in hip and happy company

I was in and out in a second on my way to

Memphis where the hell is memphis

Memphis so where the hell is memphis

I had a one way ticket and a little radio

I turned it on heard the sound from twenty years ago

Somebody smiled and said that's the only way to go

He died at twenty one now nobodys innocent in

Memphis where the hell is memphis

Somebody turned around said I got to disagree

He wrote that sort of turn people out to anarchy

He made them think about marlon brando on tv

I guess they still went down against anything they got in

Memphis where the hell is memphis

Memphis where the hell is memphis

I met a wise old man he had longer hair than me

He said memphis is nothing like it used to be

A hundred dead guitarists lying in the cemetry

I felt a sudden chill now I'm not so sure about

Memphis where the hell is memphis

I'm on a lonesome train on a lonesome track

I think I'll jump right off head for home double back

And though I'm better now I know that no one knows the facts

I'm gonna start again forget I ever heard about

Memphis where the hell is memphis
