It's midnight in Memphis
And all the boys are out tonight
Oh, midnight in Memphis
But my true love is not in sight
The neon's glowing
But I just don't see the light
I'm following my footsteps
Trying to find myself a friend
Oh, baby, following my footsteps
Trying to see where they might end
I'm trying to break these blues
But I can't even get them to bend
Oh, midnight in Memphis
Well, ya take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day
Running down on Beale Street
Can you hear that engine roar
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Running down on Beale Street
There's a girl in every door
Yeah, it don't matter what you got
They're asking me for more
Play it for me one time, boys
I heard the river rising
Rising up over my head
Yeah, heard the river rising
And this is what it said
I don't need no live ones
I just take care of the dead
Oh, midnight in Memphis
Take me, take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Midnight in Memphis
Midnight in Memphis
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day
Before the day
