Queen of Memphis

I hitch-hiked up to Memphis, a young boy in my prime
I thought that big old city could ease my Georgia mind
After just one hour, I met a Southern girl
She said, "They call me the Queen of Memphis"
Then, she took me around the world

And I saw stars dancing on the water
I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes
That old muddy river was my witness
The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis

I woke up the next morning, a prisoner of her charms
She showed me things I'd never seen back there on that farm
She set my soul on fire, she completed all my dreams
A boy became a man that night in the arms of the Memphis Queen

And I saw stars dancing on the water
I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes
That old muddy river was my witness
The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis

Just like that old man river, she keeps rolling through my mind
And you know I won't forget her 'cause she was one of a kind

I saw stars dancing on the water
I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes
That old muddy river was my witness
The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis
Now I'm still in love with the queen of Memphis
