Etta's Tune |
| What’s the temperature darling? |
| 100 and more |
| The horses pawing out the dust, but it’s Wilton by the door |
| But you pour your strongest coffee and I’ll take back of the wheel |
| We’ll drive straight down the river road, spread a blanket on the hill |
| What’s the temperature darling? |
| I don’t stare into the past |
| There was nothing that we could change or fix, it was never gonna last |
| Now don’t stare into those photos, don’t memorize my eyes |
| We’re just a mile or two from Memphis in the rhythm of our minds |
| A mile or two from Memphis |
| And I must go away |
| I tore up all the highways |
| Now there’s nothing left to say |
| A mile or two from Memphis |
| And I finally made it home |
| There were days you paced the kitchen, there were nights that felt like jail |
| When the phone rang in the dead of night you’d always throw my veil |
| No, you never touched the whiskey and you never took the pills |
| I traveled for a million miles while you were standing still |
| What’s the temperature darling as the daylight fades way? |
| I’ll make one last rehearsal with one foot in the grave |
| We kept the house on all the corners, we kept the polished bass guitar |
| We kept the tickets and the wheels of tape to remember who we are |
| A mile or two from Memphis |
| And I must go away |
| I tore up all the highways |
| There’s nothing left to say |
| A mile or two from Memphis |
| And I finally made it home |
| What’s the temperature darling? |
