Lyrics Johnny Reid – Memphis
Text:
Oh yeah
You and me man
We’d come running home from school
Drop the needle on my mama’s vinyl
We had our own old school soul revival
Yeah I’ll be ?
And you be ?
Across that kitchen floor we go
Socks sliding
Somewhere along the way
We lost track of time yeah
You went your way
And I went mine
But I never got to Memphis
Oh I never got to see Memphis with you
No I never got to walk down
Or lest to that dusty Dixie blues
No I never got to ?
playing Lucy
Hiding at that Mississippi river
No I never got to Memphis
No I never got to see Memphis with you
You heard you’re a happy
With a family of your own
Living just outside of Liverpool, see
Sometimes I wonder if you ever think
About all those crazy yesterday
Where have the years gone my friend
Well I guess we’ll never know
If dreams are made for dreamers
And music’s for believe
?
knows
I’m still pride of the blues
For the one thing, for the one thing
That I didn’t get to do
Oh I never got to Memphis
No I never got to see Memphis with you
Oh I never got to walk down
Or lest to that dusty Dixie blues, no
No I never got to ?
playing Lucy
Hiding at that Mississippi river
Oh I never got to Memphis
No I never got to see Memphis with you
I know ?
good to meet, it’s true
But I know, there’s just one thing
That keeps leaving me blue, yeah, yeah
No I never got to ?
playing Lucy
Hiding at that Mississippi river
Oh I never got to Memphis
No I never got to see Memphis with you
