A Mile out of Memphis |
When she told me she was leaving I told her I’d be fine |
I guess I never thought she’d make it to that city limit sign |
Lord I waited twenty minutes thinking she’d come running back |
But this fool got fooled cause she’s already out there making tracks |
She’s just a mile outside of Memphis and I’m already out of my mind |
I must have lost my sesnses to let that little girl leave me behind |
I wish that I could stop her but I know that it’s too late |
Her mind’s made up she’s headed down that interstate |
She’s a mile out of Memphis and I’m already out of my mind |
You gave her heartaches until she’d enough |
She laid her cards on the table and that’s when she called your bluff |
Oh you never should have gambled what you could not stand to lose |
And now you know why they call Memphis the home of the blues oh yeah |
She’s just a mile outside of Memphis… |
(guitar) |
Lord I wish that I could stop her but I know that it’s too late |
Her mind’s made up boy she’s out on that interstate |
She’s ain’t a mile out of Memphis and I’m alreayd out of your mind |
Oh I can’t stop her this time |
She’s just a mile out of Memphis and I’m already out of my mind |
