Lyrics I've Been to Memphis - Lyle Lovett

I've Been to Memphis

The sun comes up
In a coffee cup
Waitress please I’ve had enough
Lord I can’t believe what I see
How could you be alone
When you could sit right here beside me girl
And make yourself at home
I’ve been to Memphis
And Muscle Shoals
And I love a woman
What I don’t know
When the sun goes down
In another town
Bartender please another round
Lord I can’t believe what I see
How could you be alone
When you could sit right here beside me girl
And make yourself at home
I’ve been to Houston
And San Antonio
And I love a woman
What I don’t know
Sally she had big ones
Susie had some too
But Allison had little ones
What hate to go to school
And I make my bed
Where I lay my head
And I wish I heard what she just said
Lord I can’t believe what I see
How could you be alone
When you could sit right here beside me girl
And make yourself at home
I’ve been to LA
And El Paso
And I love a woman
What I don’t know
Sally she had big ones
Susie had some too
But Allison had little ones
What hate to go to school
And I make my bed
Where I lay my head
And I wish I heard what she just said
Lord I can’t believe what I see
How could you be alone
When you could sit right here beside me girl
And make yourself at home
I’ve been to…
And where I go
I love a woman
What I don’t know
