Memphis - 1967 Version
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
My uncle took the message, and he wrote it on the wall
Ah, 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 southside, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge
Ah, help me, information, more than this I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
We were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
The last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes
Marie is only six years old, information, please
Try to put me through to her in 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
My uncle took the message, and he wrote it on the wall
Ah, 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 southside, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge
Ah, help me, information, more than this I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
We were pulled apart because her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
The last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes
Marie is only six years old, information, please
Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee
