Bo Armstrong - Meet Me in Memphis

Well I've been stuck in this Mississippi mud
Girl it's really bringing me down
But I felt the call to Coahoma county
Got lost in this cotton pickin' town
Meet me in Memphis
We can ride '61 straight into the sun
Watch it sink into the levee
Then a delta moon rise and shine over the water up there like a polished penny
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis

Come on down to this hallowed ground
The devil knows I've missed ya
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis

We'll throw dice under those Hollywood lights
Just past the tunica square
Piss away the night then hit the blue and white
Where we'll laugh about last night's affairs
Meet me in Memphis
Let's find where this old highway
Runs into Route '49
I'll bare my soul like ol' Robert Jo
and if I'm lucky, honey, you'll be mine
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis

Come on down to this hallowed ground
The devil knows I've missed ya
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis

I don't think ya know just how much I need ya
I can't hold ya through the phone and talking ain't enough
Do ya feel me
Then meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis

Come on down to this hallowed ground
The devil knows I've missed ya
Come on down let our blues drown
In the Mighty Mississippi
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis
Meet me in Memphis
