Memphis Tennessee Lyrics - Buck Owens

[ with Don Rich ] 

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 

Help me operator get in touch with my Marie 

She's the only one who'd call 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 

[ guitar ] 

The last time I saw Marie she was a waving me goodbye 

With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes 

We were torn apart because her mom would not agree 

And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee 

Help me operator more than this I cannot add 

Only that I miss her so and all the fun we had 

Marie is only six years old information please 

Help to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
