Memphis Lyrics

Long distance information
Give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number but I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Help me information get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd call me here from Memphis, Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

Last time I saw Marie she was wavin' me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks, that twinkled from her eye
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
Help me information more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her, and all the fun we had
Marie is only six years old
Information please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
