Tennessee River
Headed down Illinois
Missouri 55
Pulled into Memphis
To see Elvis and that vibe
Stopped into Sun Records
Passed along the way
Had to see where Carl and Johnny
Elvis and Jerry Played
Down rt. 72
Mississippi / Alabama way
Next Stop Muscle Shoals
I kept hearing Ronnie say
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music plays
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music stays
I seen the studio
They call Fame
I seen where Aretha stood
Percy made his name
Went over Jackson Highway
For the rest of the day
A young gun named Colin
Showed me where Keith used to play
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music plays
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music stays
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music plays
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music stays
Left 3614 Jackson Highway
Headed down to McFarland park
Put my feet in the clay
Walked into the River
Up into my knees
I said Oh Lord
Help me write a song Please
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music plays
Something in that Tennessee River
That's where the magic music Stays
Something, something
Something in that Tennessee River
Something, Something
Something in that Tennessee River
Missouri 55
Pulled into Memphis
To see Elvis and that vibe
Stopped into Sun Records
Passed along the way
Had to see where Carl and Johnny
Elvis and Jerry Played

That's where the magic music plays

That's where the magic music stays

That's where the magic music plays

That's where the magic music stays

That's where the magic music Stays
Something, something
Something in that Tennessee River
Something, Something
