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
