I Have Never Been to Memphis

I come from California

Where you say no one grows old

And y'all drive to fast.

But you say it so slow.

In that southern style, baby

That always drives me crazy.

And I start to laugh.

Cause, I have never been to Memphis

But if you're there

I will pack my bag, and go.

Cause I don't care, if it never rains here,

The suns always shining.

I have never met a girl like you

And I'm tired of trying.

I have never been to Memphis.

You're all crazy about Jesus

Back where you're from.

You got baptized in rivers

Where the deep waters run.

That's alright by me,

Yeah I love that you believe in

Something you can't touch,

Something you can't see.

Cause, I have never been to Memphis

But if you're there

I will pack my bag, and go.

Even though, never been afraid of flying

But I am afraid to fall.

I've been painting by numbers you've been

Just splashing them on the wall.

And I see the colors running

It lets me know which way to go.

After all

(After all)

Yeah, After all

(After all)

I've got to get myself there, oh yeah

You know I've got to get myself there

Cause I have never been to Memphis

But if you're there.

I'm on my way

(Oh, oh oh oh)

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I'm on my way

Yeah

I'm on my way.

Gotta get myself to you baby, yeah

I have never been to Memphis.

But if you're there

I have never been to Memphis.

You're all crazy about Jesus

Back where you're from,

You get baptized in rivers

Where the deep waters run.
