Make It Back To Memphis
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
I can make it back to Memphis
I'll never do nothin' like this
If I make it back to Memphis one more time
I went down to the corner, I called by buddy Ray
Said it's a bad idea, but let's do it anyway
So we called in sick, put a twenty in his Cadillac
A hurried note to my baby, I swear I'll be right back
We started headin' south on highway 61
Been a long time, since we made this run
They got riverboat gamblin', and tunes along the Mississippi
Now I'm praying to God, lady luck is with me
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis
I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
Had a little luck, early in the night
I was up a thousand dollars, high as a kite
Then I blew it all on one last hand of Texas hold'em
I should have listened to my gut, when it said fold'em
Wasn't keeping track, of just how much I drank
Should have stashed another twenty, in Ray's gas tank
Now the needles on empty, I can see it by the light of the moon
And if we make it back to Memphis
We're gonna have to make it on fumes
If I make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis
I swear I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
(Ooh), if I can make it back to Memphis one more time
Ya, if I can make it back to Memphis
I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis
I swear I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
I can make it back to Memphis
I'll never do nothin' like this
If I make it back to Memphis one more time
I went down to the corner, I called by buddy Ray
Said it's a bad idea, but let's do it anyway
So we called in sick, put a twenty in his Cadillac
A hurried note to my baby, I swear I'll be right back
We started headin' south on highway 61
Been a long time, since we made this run
They got riverboat gamblin', and tunes along the Mississippi
Now I'm praying to God, lady luck is with me
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis
I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
Had a little luck, early in the night

I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time
If I can make it back to Memphis
I swear I'll never do nothin' like this
If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
