Memphis Jane
I don't know where she came from, but she wanted a ride
Before I could say anything, she just got inside
She said, "you got a cigarette?" I said, "what's your name?"
She said, "I'm Josephine but in Memphis, I'm Jane"
The tattoo that read S.M.O.O.T.H was crooked
Guess that was my first warning and I should've took it
She said, 'I've been clean for some time now, hey, you got some money?"
I just started laughin' 'cause it was so funny
She wants to ride, but she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She said, "my old man split and left me here all alone
I just need 20 dollars to get back home"
I smiled, and she said, "friend, every word I said is true"
And I said, "why in the world would I not believe you?"
She wants to ride, but she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She's Josephine and she's Jane
She just wants 20 dollars
She's got smooth on her arm
She wants to ride
I used to live in spring hill, but I got relocated
Now I'm at the come and go motel, but I hate it
She said, I got a new job now at hair world and market
I went 65, and she said, drive it or park it
She wants to ride, she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
Before I could say anything, she just got inside
She said, "you got a cigarette?" I said, "what's your name?"
She said, "I'm Josephine but in Memphis, I'm Jane"
The tattoo that read S.M.O.O.T.H was crooked
Guess that was my first warning and I should've took it
She said, 'I've been clean for some time now, hey, you got some money?"
I just started laughin' 'cause it was so funny
She wants to ride, but she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She said, "my old man split and left me here all alone
I just need 20 dollars to get back home"
I smiled, and she said, "friend, every word I said is true"
And I said, "why in the world would I not believe you?"
She wants to ride, but she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She's Josephine and she's Jane
She just wants 20 dollars
She's got smooth on her arm
She wants to ride
I used to live in spring hill, but I got relocated
Now I'm at the come and go motel, but I hate it
She said, I got a new job now at hair world and market
I went 65, and she said, drive it or park it
She wants to ride, she ain't going nowhere
She wants to ride, but she don't even know where
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
She's just ridin' around
