Midnight In Memphis

It's midnight in Memphis

All the girls are out tonight

It's midnight in Memphis

But my true love is not in sight

Oh,the neon is glowin'

But I just can't see the light

Well I'm followin' my footsteps

Tryin' to find myself a friend

Followin' my footsteps

Just to see where it might end

Oh, I'm tryin' to break these blues

But I can't even get 'em to bend

[Chorus]

Midnight in Memphis

Where would you take me away?

Midnight in Memphis

It's a long, long time before day

It's burnin' on Beale Street

Can't you hear the engines roar?

It's burnin' on Beale Street

There's a girl in every door

Girl in every door

It don't matter what you got

They're asking even more

I heard the river risin'

Risin' up over my head

I heard the river risin'

And this is what it said

Said "I don't need no live ones

I just take care of the dead"

[Chorus]
