Midnight in Memphis |
| Its midnight in memphis |
| And all the boys are out tonight. |
| Oh, midnight in memphis, |
| But my true love is not in sight. |
| The neons glowing, |
| But I just dont see the light. |
| Im following my footsteps |
| Trying to find myself a friend. |
| Oh, baby! |
| following my footsteps |
| Trying to see where they might end. |
| Im tryin to break these blues, |
| But I cant even get them to bend. |
| Oh, midnight in memphis. |
| Well, ya take me away. |
| Midnight in memphis. |
| Its a long, long time |
| Before the day. |
| Burnin out on beale street. |
| Can you hear that engine roar? |
| Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. |
| Burnin out on beale street. |
| Theres a girl in every door. |
| Yeah, you know it dont matter what you got, |
| Theyre asking me for more. |
| Play it for me one time, boys. |
| I heard the river risin, |
| Risin up over my head. |
| Yeah, heard the river risin, |
| And this is what it said: |
| «i dont need no live ones; |
| I just take care of the dead.» |
| Oh, midnight in memphis. |
| Take me, take me away. |
| Midnight in memphis. |
| Its a long, long time |
| Before the day. |
| Whoa, oh, oh, oh, midnight in memphis. |
| Midnight in memphis. |
| Midnight in memphis. |
| Its a long, long time |
| Before the day, |
| Before the day. |
