Memphis
Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party tryin' to get in touch with me
She could not leave a number but I know the place to call
Someone 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 upon the ridge
Just a half a mile from that Mississippi bridge
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were torn apart because her mom did not agree
Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
Last time I saw Marie she was wavin' me goodbye
With "hurry-home" drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party tryin' to get in touch with me
She could not leave a number but I know the place to call
Someone 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 upon the ridge
Just a half a mile from that Mississippi bridge
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were torn apart because her mom did not agree
Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
Last time I saw Marie she was wavin' me goodbye
With "hurry-home" drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
