Joe Jackson - Memphis lyrics
words and music by Joe Jackson) Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? I got to get away, study my geography I'm just a shadow of the boy I used to be I used to see the light, now it's all a mystery I used to feel the beat, now I feel a million miles from... Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? I used dirty words never too excessively But saying "rock&roll" never seemed so bad to me I dare said it in hip and happy company I was in and out in a second on my way to... Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis, so where the hell is Memphis? I had a one-way ticket and a little radio I turned it on, heard the sound from twenty years ago Somebody smiled and said, that's the only way to go He died at twenty-one, now nobody's innocent in... Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Somebody turned around, said, I got to disagree He wrote that sort of turn people out to anarchy He made them think about Marlon Brando on TV I guess they still went down against anything they got in... Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? I met a wise old man, he had longer hair than me He said, Memphis is nothing like it used to be A hundred dead guitarists lying in the cemetry I felt a sudden chill, now I'm not so sure about... Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? Memphis - Where the hell is Memphis? I'm on a lonesome train on a lonesome track I think I'll jump right off, head for home, double back And though I'm better now I know that no-one knows the facts I'm gonna start again, forget I ever heard about |
