Midnight In Memphis Lyrics - Hoyt Axton

It's midnight in Memphis 

All the girls are out tonight 

It's midnight in Memphis 

But my true love is not in sight 

Oh,the neon is glowin' 

But I just can't see the light 

 

Well I'm followin' my footsteps 

Tryin' to find myself a friend 

Followin'my footsteps 

Just to see where it might end 

Oh, I'm tryin' to break these blues 

But I can't even get 'em to bend 

 

Chorus: 

Midnight in Memphis 

Where would you take me away? 

Midnight in Memphis 

It's a long, long time before day 

 

It's burnin' on Beale Street 

Can't you hear the engines roar? 

It's burnin' on Beale Street 

There's a girl in every door 

Girl in every door 

It don't matter what you got 

They're asking even more 

 

I heard the river risin' 

Risin' up over my head 

I heard the river risin' 

And this is what it said 

Said "I don't need no live ones 

I just take care of the dead" 

 

Repeat chorus
