Midnight in Memphis |
| It’s midnight in Memphis |
| All the girls are out tonight |
| It’s midnight in Memphis |
| But my true love is not in sight |
| Oh, the neon is glowin' |
| But I just can’t see the light |
| Well I’m followin' my footsteps |
| Tryin' to find myself a friend |
| Followin’my footsteps |
| Just to see where it might end |
| Oh, I’m tryin' to break these blues |
| But I can’t even get 'em to bend |
| Midnight in Memphis |
| Where would you take me away? |
| Midnight in Memphis |
| It’s a long, long time before day |
| It’s burnin' on Beale Street |
| Can’t you hear the engines roar? |
| It’s burnin' on Beale Street |
| There’s a girl in every door |
| Girl in every door |
| It don’t matter what you got |
| They’re asking even more |
| I heard the river risin' |
| Risin' up over my head |
| I heard the river risin' |
| And this is what it said |
| Said «I don’t need no live ones |
| I just take care of the dead» |
| Repeat chorus |
