Never Left Memphis
Lyrics
Tip jar out on a Bayou street
Blues man strumming that slide guitar
Motown drummer with a Detroit beat
Making ends meet playing in a rock n roll bar
Uptown
Downtown
Up North
Down South
Roots spread wide from that ground
And that Mississippi river sound
Never left Memphis
Its on the streets of Beale & BB’s hands up in heaven
Never left Memphis
Its out on mud island & in the moonlight there’s sun records
Shining for the whole world
Through every twist & every turn
Its where everybody goes
Cause everybody knows the Graceland ghost of Elvis
Never left Memphis
Never left Memphis
From Gainesville west to Muscle Shoals
To the shores on the coast of California
Midwest roads from Chicago
Rode all the way down to Texas
And never left Memphis
Its on the streets of Beale & BB’s hands up in heaven
Never left Memphis
Its out on mud island & in the moonlight there’s sun records
Shining for the whole world
Through every twist & every turn
Its where everybody goes
Cause everybody knows the Graceland ghost of Elvis
Never left Memphis
Never left Memphis
Uptown
Downtown
Up North
Down South
Roots spread wide from that ground
And that Mississippi river sound
Never left Memphis
Its on the streets of Beale & BB’s hands up in heaven
Never left Memphis
Its out on mud island & in the moonlight there’s sun records
Shining for the whole world
Through every twist & every turn
Its where everybody goes
Cause everybody knows the Graceland ghost of Elvis
Never left Memphis
Never left Memphis.
