Memphis; The Blues (feat. J.R. Carroll)

Rain started fallin' on the roof that mornin'

It was early summertime

We fogged up the rear window of my '67

Three-hundred, in-line

My lungs have been hurtin' and it's likely

My liver has taken a lickin' too

Them Beale Street boys are handy

With a clap on four and two

The thrill is gone so slow and easy

Won't you love me tender?

The way you move's a drug

And I am on a lifelong bender

So rest them tired eyes

And let your dress fall to the ground

We're the only ones left

Who love Otis in this town

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

I saw you comin' from a mile away, and knew what I'd been missin'

Felt your touch and lost my mind, I'm a fool with bad intentions

Left my heart in Tulsa but now I find it where you are

If you just ask I swear I'd change my ways, it doesn't have to be so hard

Dreamin' out loud while you smile and run your fingers through my hair

From here to Hell and to Tennessee, I'd follow you anywhere[Chorus: J.R. Carroll]

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

I need you like Memphis the blues

Fuck, yeah, I'm in
