Memphis Songtext
von Mrs. Miller

Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
′Cause my uncle took the message, and he wrote it on the wall


Help me, operator, get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who′d phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge

The last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye
Hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore out of our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee

Help me, operator, more than this I cannot add
Only that I miss her so and all the fun we had
Marie is only six years old, information please
Help to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
