Electric Memphis Blues Lyrics

Chris Rea Electric Memphis Blues

Caught the midnight train
I go hustling through the night
I caught the midnight train
I go hustling through the night
Gonna jump off north of Memphis
When my hometown's out of sight

They say there's only the Devil waiting
In the big city way up there
They say there's only the Devil waiting for me
In the big city way up there
What they don't seem to know
What I been through
I just don't care, no

Gonna get me one of them
Shiny new electric guitars
I'm gonna get me one of them
Shiny new electric guitars
All my best friends say
Well, that's how they're gonna know who you are

Electric Memphis
Electric Memphis Blues
Electric Memphis
Electric Memphis Blues
Electric Memphis
See me coming through
