Lyrics
Memphis
@2009 Julianne Ankley/Toil & Trouble Music
Baby sit down here beside me
couple things I gotta say
I spent way too many lonely nights
When you were out of town workin' away
bossman called lookin' for you tonight
Said there was no Tennessee
There's no need for you tell me
What don't I already see
Bet that's a call comin in from Memphis
From someone you know
Who must know what it feels like
When you decide not to show
I'll bet she's sittin' there waitin' in the dark
With a drink in her hand
Well let Memphis keep on ringin'
don't she know you're my man
All those years we spent together
Only meant somethin' to me
Cause I had my chance with temptation
and it was no choice I could see
Oh I guess there was only one of us
Who thought that this felt right
So I packed your bags for Tennessee
You could still be there tonight
Chorus
Oh I want to know
How you could do me like this
What was so great about her
That you couldn't resist?
Chorus
Repeat last line
