Mornings In Memphis |
| Soon the sun will rise |
| Outside the streets are quiet |
| Not a car on the road |
| Not a soul in sight |
| I’ll bet it’s ninety degrees |
| There’s no escape from the heat |
| The dead of night |
| Still climbs up from the street |
| I’ve been up all night |
| Drinking alone |
| I ain’t got no business |
| Out on the road |
| I love mornings in Memphis |
| I could take a stroll |
| Sometimes when I’m on my own |
| I walk down Beale Street |
| Real nice and slow |
| Walk up to the river’s edge |
| Get down under the bridge |
| Highway |
| overhead |
| I stand all alone in the dark |
| Pay no mind to the sky full of stars |
| Try not to think |
| Just listen to my heart |
| Those boats pass in the night |
| I’m skipping stones and gettin' high |
| I love mornings in Memphis |
| Long after the midnight |
| Before the sunrise |
| Tracing fingers in the dust |
| Then startin' to sober up |
| Dawning light |
| Stars fade to a clear blue sky |
| No sign of life |
| Over on the Arkansas side |
| Oh but before |
| Wait for the sun itself to show |
| A new daylight |
| Muddy water turned to gold |
| Maybe I should just stay in |
| I know I’ll be back this way again |
| I love mornings in Memphis |
