BOB'S MUSIC PLAYER

MEMPHIS

By: Johnny Rivers

Long distance information
give me Memphis, Tennessee.
Help me find the party
that tried to get in touch with me.
She could not leave a 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, Tennesee.
Her home is on the south side,
high upon the 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 cheek
that trickled from her eyes.
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,
information please,
try to put me through to her
in Memphis, Tennessee!
