Don't Mention Memphis

Mister can you take me into Little Rock

I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck

I'll listen all night if you wanna talk

Just don't mention Memphis



And we can talk about your family

Politics, music, and philosophy

Any old subject's allright with me

Just don't mention Memphis



Or blue eyes and light brown hair

An angel wavin' to me from the top of the stairs

The hardest thing I did was leave her standin' there

So don't mention Memphis



Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup

We'll make Texas with a little luck

And I'm hangin' with ya 'till the sun comes up

So don't mention Memphis



Or blue eyes and light brown hair

An angel wavin' to me from the top of the stairs

The hardest thing I did was leave her standin' there

So don't mention Memphis



I don't wanna talk about Memphis

And the hardest thing I did was leave my baby there

So don't mention Memphis

I don't wanna talk about Memphis
