I hitchhiked up to Memphis, a young boy in my prime
|
I thought that big old city would ease my Georgia mind
|
After just one hour, I met a Southern girl
|
She said they call me the Queen of Memphis
|
And then she took me around the world
|
|
CHORUS
|
I saw stars dancing on the water
|
I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes
|
That old muddy river was my witness
|
The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis
|
|
I woke up the next morning a prisoner of her charms
|
She showed me things I'd never seen back there on that farm
|
She set my soul on fire, she completed all my dreams
|
A boy became a man that night in the arms of the Memphis Queen
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
Just like that old man river she keeps rolling through my mind
|
And you know I won't forget her 'cause she was one of a kind
|
|
REPEAT CHORUS
|
|
