Memphis Rain
She wanted to wait 'till I got home
Hated to do it on the phone
I could hear her start to cry
So I said babe it's alright
She said she hoped I understood
I just told her it's all good
Lit a smoke blew out the flame
Stepped out in the Memphis Rain
There's a little house she really loved
Just off highway 41
Not to far from where we live
A real good yard for raising kids
I never thought I'd feel alive
Working in a 9 to 5
You think of things you could have changed
Walking in the Memphis Rain
Yeah there's hardly anyone around
Now it's really coming down
Down, down, down
That muddy rivers running high
I must be losing track of time
I can't feel my legs at all
Walked halfway to Arkansas
I wonder how long it'd take to go
From here to the gulf of Mexico
A man could almost go insane
Out here in the Memphis Rain
Yeah there's hardly anyone around
Now it's really coming down
Down, down, down
She said she hoped I understood
I just told her it's all good
I lit a smoke blew out the flame
And disappeared in the Memphis rain
Hated to do it on the phone
I could hear her start to cry
So I said babe it's alright
She said she hoped I understood
I just told her it's all good
Lit a smoke blew out the flame
Stepped out in the Memphis Rain
There's a little house she really loved
Just off highway 41
Not to far from where we live
A real good yard for raising kids
I never thought I'd feel alive
Working in a 9 to 5
You think of things you could have changed
Walking in the Memphis Rain
Yeah there's hardly anyone around
Now it's really coming down
Down, down, down
That muddy rivers running high
I must be losing track of time
I can't feel my legs at all
Walked halfway to Arkansas
I wonder how long it'd take to go
From here to the gulf of Mexico
A man could almost go insane
Out here in the Memphis Rain
Yeah there's hardly anyone around
Now it's really coming down
Down, down, down
She said she hoped I understood
I just told her it's all good
I lit a smoke blew out the flame
And disappeared in the Memphis rain
