Mississippi River railroad track

Want to go to Memphis get my baby back

Get me a motorcycle take off tomorrow

If it don't run I'll get me a car

Fill that car with gasoline

Do anything just to see her again

Mississippi River railroad track

Want to go to Memphis get my baby back



Walking down the highway

Thumbing down the road

Got to get there

How I don't know



Uphill, downhill, just around the bend

Got to go to Memphis see my baby again



Leaving in the morning

I cannot wait

Got to go to Memphis

See my baby today



Get me a ticket fly on a cloud

Airplane, airplane help me out

Mississippi River railroad track

Want to go to Memphis get my baby back
