Alone In Memphis Lyrics

Austin Lucas Alone In Memphis

When I am gone, I know the waiting
Gets to you
It's like the world stopped turning
You're frozen, no one seems to notice
The absence of the wind
I know you were only
It's the kind only I feel out here

I don't wanna alone in Memphis
I don't wanna alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rigs
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

And I've been down
In Mississippi river towns
For far too long
There's something about the night life
Something about this bar
There's something in the music
The brass, the drum beat like a heart
It reminds of your eyes and cold black hair
I am growing ever lonelier out here

I don't wanna alone in Memphis
I don't wanna alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rigs
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

I don't wanna be alone in Memphis
I don't wanna be alone in New Orleans
I don't wanna dwell in cheap motels
Dirty sheets and hourly rigs
I just wanna put the pedal to the floor
Burn up the stage like an old troubadour
I wanna get stoned
But I don't wanna be alone in Memphis anymore
