The Hollies - Memphis lyrics
[The Hollies - Memphis lyrics]
Tennessee help me find a party tried to
Get in touch with me
She did not leave her number
But, I know who placed the call
My uncle took the message
And he wrote on the wall
Help me, information
Get in touch with my Marie
She's the only who'd call
Me here from Memphis, tennessee
Her home is on the south side
High up on a ridge just a half a mile
From the Mississippi Bridge
Help me, information
More than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the times we had
But we were torn apart
Because her ma did not agree
She tore apart our happy home in Memphis
Tennessee help me, information
More than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the times we had
But we were torn apart
Because her ma did not agree
She tore apart our happy home in Memphis
Tennessee
Last time I saw Marie
She was waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheek
That trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years
Old, oh information, please
Try and put me through to her in Memphis
Tennessee
