Lyrics

Alright, baby, here's one we hope you enjoy
 Hope we can get it right this time
 A little groovy tune that recently sold about
 I guess a couple of hundred thousand records for a very fine gentlemen
 And we'd like to do our version of this song for ya
 A little thing called "Memphis, Tennessee"
 ♪
 Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee
 Help me find the party that's trying to get in touch with me
 She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
 My uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall, oh yeah
 Now help me, information, more than this 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, Memphis, Tennessee
 ♪
 Oh, help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
 She's the only one who's 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
 Whoa, the last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye
 Hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
 Marie was pulled apart because her mom did not agree
 And tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
 Alright
 ♪
 Woo, thank you very much, ladies and gentleman
