Memphis Tennessee Lyrics

(Chuck Berry)

Long distance information
Give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party
Try to get in touch with me.

She could not leave her number
But I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took the message
And he wrote it on the wall.

Long distance information
Get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who's called me here
From Memphis Tennessee.

Her home is on the southside
High up on a ridge
Just a half a mile
From the Mississippi Bridge.

Last time I saw Marie
She was waving me goodbye
Hurry home drops on her cheeks
That trickled from her eyes.

We were torn apart because
Her daddy did not agree
Tore apart our happy home
In Memphis Tennessee.

Long distance operator
More than this I cannot add
Only that I miss her
And all the fun we had.

Marie is only six years old
So information please
Try to get me through to her
In Memphis Tennessee...
