Memphis; The Blues (feat. J.R. Carroll)

Rain started falling on the roof that morning, it was early summertime It fogged up the rear window of my '67 300 inline My lungs have been hurting and it's likely my liver's taken a licking too Them Beale Street boys are handy with a clap on four and two The thrill is gone so slow and easy, won't you love me tender? The way you move's a drug, and I'm on a lifelong bender So, rest them tired eyes, and let your dress fall to the ground We're the only ones left who love Otis in this town I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues I saw you coming from a mile away and knew what I'd been missing Felt your touch and lost my mind, I'm full of bad intentions Left my heart in Tulsa, but now I find it where you are If you just ask, I swear, I'll change my ways, it doesn't have to be so hard Dreaming out loud while you smile and run your fingers through my hair From here to the hill of Tennessee, I'd follow you anywhere I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues I need you like Memphis, the blues
