Memphis Train

Lyrics: TV(Timo), Music: Jasse

 

This is a song I never wanted to write

There’s not much bark and even less bite

Just found out you wouldn’t lay with me

On a kingsize bed, let alone a field of stone

 

Friday night and nothing is right

I am nowhere, I got no place to go

No too many parties or too many pals

I think I’ve reached an all time low

 

Big train from Memphis keeps a rollin’

With its’ lonesome whistle blowin’

Yeah the big train from Memphis keeps a rollin’

With its’ lonesome whistle blowin’

 

Thrown away, kicked out, fired, left without a home

I thought that this was it but here comes another blow

Believe me I know that life’s not always fair

Remember this when it’s getting to be way too much to bear

 

Ole hank got me through the worst

Merle helped a great deal too

Johnny and Kris I could always count on

David Allan’s writings reflected my own

While I spent hours crying on the phone

C’mon!

 

Big train from Memphis keeps a rollin’

With its’ lonesome whistle blowin’

Yeah the big train from Memphis keeps a rollin’

With its’ lonesome whistle blowin’
