I drove all the way from Storyville

on a midnight Memphis run

From Bourbon Street to Beale Street

straight up Highway 61

I was tuned in on radio

maybe ten miles out of town

When I heard the rose of Memhis boys

that's when I left the ground

I can't go back to Storyville way down there by the sea

Till I can say I got the rose of Memphis

coming home with me

She wrapped her song around my heart

just like the Kudzu vine

That keeps on growing after dark

straight up some lonesome pine

I've got to find that woman now

cause my life ain't complete

Man there ain't nobody out there got

the rose of Memphis beat

I can't go back to New Orleans

that ol' crescent city town

Till I can say I got the rose of Memphis

coming on the rounds

Rose of Memphis I love the rose of Memphis

Rose of Memphis I love the rose of Memphis

I love the rose of Memphis man

she sings just like a bird

I swear she makes the sweetest sound

I think I ever heard

She was born down by

the river that ol' river's in her soul

Man they can't nobody touch her

when the rose is on a roll

I can't get go back to Louisiana by

the Gulf of Mexico

Till I can say I've got the rose of Memphis

coming home to show

Rose of Memphis I love the rose of Memphis

Rose of Memphis I love the rose of Memphis
