Memphis Morning

(Roland Pike - Johnny Wilson)



They announced the train was right on time

Baby stepped aboard and left the both of us behind

Well you've gotta make your day and I've gotta make my way

Somehow someway from here and you

Memphis mornin'.



She's to me what sunshine is to you

Her train crossed the river flyin' now what will I do

Like sunshine helps make your day she helped in her own way

Without sunshine flowers waste away

Memphis mornin'.



Oh Memphis mornin' you're not so pretty anymore

Raise your bridges start your whistles blowin'

I don't know what I'm hangin' 'round for

Memphis mornin'.



Now you hold too many memories

Best thing I can do is leave you with 'em without me

Well if I come back this way now I'll try to plan my day

So you won't see me passin' through

Memphis mornin'.



Oh, Memphis mornin', oh, Memphis mornin'

Oh, Memphis mornin'...
