Yeah

Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee

Help me find the party that tried to get in touch with me

They would not leave a number but I know the place to call

'Cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall

Long distance information get in touch with my Marie

She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee

Her home is on the south side high up on a ridge

Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

Long distance information more than that I cannot add

Only that I miss her and all the fun we had

But we were torn apart because her mom did not agree

And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

Now last time I saw Marie she was waving me goodbye

With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes

Marie is only six years old information please

Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee

Yes oh yes long distance I'll accept the charge I'll pay

But which loved one is calling me I did not hear you say

Both are deep within my heart her Mom and my Marie

It's so good to hear your voice from Memphis Tennessee

Oh you mean so much to me more than you'll ever know

Surely you have not forgot how much I love you so

If you would remember dear and sometimes talk to me

Maybe that would reunite our home in Tennessee

Last time I saw you just before I had to leave

You didn't want to see me off and promised not to grieve

My heart was torn apart as I looked back at Marie

And there the pieces still remain with you in Tennessee

I guess I should stop talking after all you placed the call

But any way that I can help you know I'll help you all

Then her mother told me to come back and see Marie

And live together in our home in Memphis Tennessee
