Memphis Town |
| Went to the station: to get me a train |
| Going to climb on board: and ride again |
| Just climb aboard: and ride around |
| I might get off: at Memphis town |
| Shovel in the coal: see the wheels go around |
| Everybody’s going: down to Memphis town |
| I said conductor: where the trains all going |
| I want to go see: that gal of mine |
| He answered me: with a railroad frown |
| All trains going: to Memphis town |
| I said what’s doing: down old Memphis way |
| The trains all going: there today |
| The trainman said: there’s a jubilee |
| And Memphis is town: that’s only place for me |
| I said to the station man: where’s my train |
| He said I never knowed: you own the train |
| I said you better answer: or I’ll smack you down |
| He said all trains going: to Memphis town |
| Goodbye folks: I’m on my way |
| See you: on some other day |
| Got my ticket: here’s my train |
| Going down to Memphis: see my gal again |
