Memphis, Tennessee

[Verse 1]

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

[Verse 2]

Help me information get in touch with my Marie

She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee

Her house is on the south side, high up on a ridge

Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge

[Verse 3]

Last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye

With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickeled from her eye

Marie is only six years old, information, please

Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennesee
