big dipper (band) - all the way from memphis lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
forgot my six-string razor
and hit the sky
half way to memphis before i realised
i rang the information
my axe was cold
they said she rides the train to oriole

[chorus]
now it’s a mighty long way down a dusty trail
and the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
and i look like a bum, and i crawl like a snail!
(all the way from memphis)

[verse 2]
i got to oriole
y’know, it took a month
and there was my guitar, electric junk
some dude said “rock ‘n’ rollers
you’re all the same
man, that’s your instrument?”
i felt so ashamed

[chorus]
now it’s a mighty long way down rock’n’roll
through the bradford cities and the orioles
and you look like a star, but you’re still on the dole!
(all the way from memphis)

yeah it’s a mighty long way down rock ‘n’ roll
from the liverpool docks to the hollywood bowl
and you climb up the mountains, and you fall down the holes!
(all the way from memphis)

yeah it’s a mighty long way down rock’n’roll
as your name gets hot so your heart grows cold
and you gotta stay young man, you can never grow old!
(all the way from memphis)

yeah it’s a mighty long way down rock’n’roll
through the bradford cities and the orioles
and you look like a star but you’re really out on parole!
(all the way from memphis)
