Midnight in Memphis

It's midnight in Memphis
And all the boys are out tonight
Oh midnight in Memphis
My true love is not in sight
The neon's glowin'
But I just don't see the light

I'm followin' my footsteps
Tryin' to find myself a friend
Oh baby, followin' my footsteps
Tryin' to see where they might end
I'm tryin' to break these blues
But I can't even get them to bend

Midnight in Memphis
Well take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long long time before the day

Rollin' down on Beale Street
Can you hear that engine roar
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Rollin' down on Beale Street
There's a girl in every door, yeah
It don't matter what you got
They're after even more
Play it for me one time, boys

I heard the river risin'
Risin' up over my head
Yeah heard the river risin'
And this is what it said
I don't need no live ones
I'll just take care of the dead

Oh midnight in Memphis
Take me, take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long long time before the day
Oh midnight in Memphis
Midnight in Memphis, midnight in Memphis
