Memphis Lyrics

Anne Haigis Memphis

Way back Friday wasn't my day
                                                I hung my boots on the factory door
                                                   I found a diesel, hit it my way
                                                 I made my bed here on the floor

                                                 Where the station never closes
                                                   Only people here shut down
                                               I thought I'd never live to see the day
                                                   I like the view to fade away
                                                  And out of the dark night I see

                                                  There's a light on in Memphis
                                                  There's a party there tonight
                                               Someone left the light on in Memphis
                                               Oh, Elvis must be coming home tonight

                                               I got to know you I've got to own you
                                                  I wanna help you anyway I can
                                           I know you're out there hard that somewhere
                                              Your mystery train keeps rolling on till I

                                                   See the light on in Memphis
                                                 I keep your candle burning bright
                                               Someone left the light on in Memphis
                                               Oh, Elvis must be coming home tonight

                                                 Well I'm not one for complaining
                                               Cause you're not answering my mail
                                               I thought I'd never live to see the day
                                                        I like some view
                                                  And out of the dark night I see
                                                           I can see

                                                   See the light on in Memphis
                                                 Your candle burns in Tennessee
                                               Someone left the light on in Memphis
                                               Oh, Elvis must be coming home tonight
