lena wilson - memphis tennessee lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
down in memphis, tennessee
that’s the only place to be
churches ringing, darkies singing
old, familiar tunes
where the mississippi flows
and the cotton blossoms grow
that’s the place to be
memphis, tennessee

[verse 2]
i’m going back to memphis, tennessee today
where my many friends will welcome me, and say
i know i’ve been a wayward child
and so very wild
like a rolling stone
i wandered ‘way from home

[chorus]
nellie
i can see
you in my dreams
how my conscious worries me
so i’m coming back
got my satchel pack
to go back to memphis, tennessee

[instrumental break]

[verse 2]
i’m going back to memphis, tennessee today
where my many friends will welcome me, and say
i know i’ve been a wayward child
and so very wild
like a rolling stone, and

[chorus]
nellie
i can see
you in my dreams
how my conscious worries me
so i’m coming back
i’ve got my satchel pack
to go back to memphis, tennessee
