Motel In Memphis |
| Were you there when the man from Atlanta was |
| Murdered in Memphis? |
| Did you see him laying at the Lorraine Motel? |
| Did you hear them say that the CIA is witness |
| To the murder of a man at a motel in Memphis? |
| (Chorus) |
| Motel in Memphis |
| Motel in Memphis |
| Run and tell somebody |
| There’s blood on the riverside |
| Oh muddy water |
| Rollin' to Memphis |
| If you were there you’d swear |
| It was more then a man who died |
| Did you see Coretta she was sobbing on The corner in her black veil? |
| Did you see Mr. Crump in a white coat grin? |
| Did you walk downriver where the cottonwoods are swinging |
| With ghostly bodies of men? |
| (Chorus) |
| Were you there with Mahalia wailing at the funeral? |
| Did you watch them lower his casket in? |
| Did you tremble when you thought about the future |
| And cry out for a martyred man? |
| (Chorus) |
