CRY MEMPHIS

verse 1
She walks Downtown with a Red Dress On
Late at night with her mind half gone
and come the morning she hides her face
and the lines of shame time can’t replace

Verse2
Her name was Memphis born in Albany
The Prettiest girl Tommy had ever seen
ya, Tommy loved Memphis and his love was strong
Even loved her late at night with her mind half gone

Cry Memphis

Verse 3
Tommy bought Memphis a wedding band 
he cried, let me be your one and only man
I love you Memphis with  a love so blind
I’m begging you to leave that worlds behind

Verse 4
Memphis cried Tommy now don’t you know
you can’t make love with a heart of stone
time will pass and then you’ll see
I’m not the woman that you want me to be

no, I’m not the woman that you want me to be

Chorus
and he’d cry Memphis
please come home
and he’d cry Memphis
don’t leave me alone

bridge
Tommy fell down on his knees
as Memphis jumped into that white limousine
one last look is all she gave
and he knew he’d never see Memphis again


repeat chorus
