memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

i got to get away, study my geography
i’m just a shadow of the boy i used to be
i used to see the light, now it’s all a mystery
i used to feel the beat, now i feel a million miles from…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

i used dirty words never too excessively
but saying “rock’n’roll” never seemed so bad to me
i once said it in hip and happy company
i was in and out in a second on my way to…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

memphis – so where the h-ll is memphis?

i had a one-way ticket and a little radio
i turned it on, heard the sound from twenty years ago

he died at twenty-one, now n-body’s innocent in…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

somebody turned around, said, i got to disagree

he made them think about marlon brando on tv
i guess they still went down against anything they got in…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

i met a wise old man, he had longer hair than me
he said, memphis is nothing like it used to be
a hundred dead guitarists lying in the cemetry
i felt a sudden chill, now i’m not so sure about…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?

i’m on a lonesome train on a lonesome track
i think i’ll jump right off, head for home, double back
and though i’m better now i know that no-one knows the facts
i’m gonna start again, forget i ever heard about…

memphis – where the h-ll is memphis?
