The King Knows How |
| I feel as lonely |
| As anybody |
| Who’s cryin' on a Friday night |
| Once in a while |
| On my radio dial |
| I accidentally get it right |
| I’m thinkin' I might be tempted to |
| Slide on over |
| Slide on over |
| I’m thinkin' I need a little somethin' to |
| Tide me over |
| Tide me over |
| Till Memphis |
| You know that lonesome |
| Whippoorwill? |
| I know a girl who is bluer still |
| Is that a jukebox altar call |
| Or just a soft smoky place to fall? |
| I’m thinkin' I might be tempted to |
| Slide on over |
| Slide on over |
| I’m thinkin' I need a little somethin' to |
| Tide me over |
| Tide me over |
| Till Memphis |
| Cause the king knows how |
| To take me all the way |
| Yeah the king knows how |
| To take me all the way |
| To Memphis |
| I feel as lonely |
| As anybody |
| Who’s cryin' on a Friday night |
| I’m not laughin' |
| Because it’s funny. |
| Hank is laughin' 'cause he’s always right |
| I’m thinkin' I might be tempted to |
| Slide on over |
| Slide on over |
| I’m thinkin' I need a little something to |
| Tide me over |
| Tide me over |
| You strike the match boy |
| But do you know how |
| To burn it all the way down |
| To Memphis |
| 'Cause the king knows how |
| To take me all the way… |
