bachman turner overdrive - can't go back to memphis lyrics
low down dealin’s in memphis
a card game in a back room
i was lookin’ at my last dollar
hopin’ lady luck would come by soon
i played out on the east side
till i heard my reputation was in doubt
it was starting to look like a bad ride
it looked like time for gettin’ out
they raised the betting limit
the cards were falling fast
i bet away my future,
i already lost my past
now i can’t go back to memphis
i played out every game
i can’t go back to memphis
everybody knows my name
too many people wanna even out the score
and i can’t go back to memphis no more
i did my best to beat the system
but the system put me back in my palace
they maintained a delicate balance
where no one got in n-body’s face
i was tryin’ to make a dollar
just survivin’ in the street
i fought the gangs, i fought the law
but they both had me beat
now i can’t go back to memphis
i played out every game
i can’t go back to memphis
everybody knows my name
too many people wanna even out the score
and i can’t go back to memphis no more
i can’t go back to memphis
i can’t go back to memphis
no, no, i can’t go back to memphis
no, no, no, no i can’t go back to memphis
no, no, no, no
too many people wanna even out the score
and i can’t go back to memphis no more
