Lyrics
Broken down in Memphis
I'm broken down inside
It's been so many years
Since luck's been on my side
I wish there was a road map
For those who lost their way
A better destination
Can't be that far away
Don't give up on me
I'll do anything
And I'm down on my knees
Can you hear my prayer
A second chance is all I ask
My old ways that dropped me here
Broken down in Memphis
