Lyrics |
He's holed up down on Ramrod Key in the Tavenier Hotel Livin' out his loneliness like an oyster in a shell By days he pulls the trap lines By night he lives alone Don't really feel like company it't just him and his fridge And his phone(CHORUS) Meet Me In Memphis that's where I'll be I'm by the river please come back to me Meet Me In Memphis my wild days are through And nothing replaces me next to you He's been there since she ran away She said, " She needs some space" Occasionally she still calls collect> From some godforsaken place Then one day a letter came Too much for a letter please come here instead Meet Me In Memphis my wild days are through Still nothing replaces me next to you(INSTRUMENTAL)I know she could break my heart again But I'm gonna play and I'm gonna win Where Otis ould play Da da da dock of the bay Meet Me In Memphis that's where I'll be I'm by the river and by the sea( Oh please) Meet Me In Memphis my wild days are through Still nothing replaces me next to you
