Memphis Midnight / Memphis Morning

The sun she went down like a curtain And Lord, Memphis looks, looks bigger at night And all the tattooed boys in their uniforms They stepped in and out of the light She bought me good whiskey in Memphis She bought supper and she, she paid for the room And as best as I can remember She paid dearly for loving me too She said, '€œHey, don't I know you? And ain't you the one, the one with the guitar boys And all them sad songs about men in the rain And did you ever miss a plain to Memphis'€ We laughed at the strangers, we were in the bed The two cigarettes that lit up the room Just like two backseat lovers that can't wait to get started Knowing everything's over too soon And now Memphis ain't bad in the morning Good coffee, well, it's, it's just hard to find But let me suggest that you never leave Memphis With anything on your mind She said, '€œHey, don't I know you And ain't you the one, the one with the guitar boys And all them sad songs about men in the rain And did you ever miss a plain to Memphis'€ She said, '€œHey, don't I know you Now ain't you the one, the one with the guitar boys And all them sad songs about men in the rain And did you ever miss a plain to Memphis'€
