Memphis, Tennessee Lyrics - Chuck Berry

Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee 

Help me find the party trying 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, information, get in touch with my Marie 

She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee 

Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge 

Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge 

Help me, information, more than that I cannot add 

Only that I miss her and all the fun we had 

But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree 

And tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee

Last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye 

With hurry-home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye 

Marie is only 6 years old, information, please 

Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
