lyrics

BACK TO MEMPHIS
by Danni Nicholls, Steve O’Brien and Tommy Reilly

Sometimes I get tired of smiling all the time
I wanna hear a song where the words don't rhyme
The cowboy rides off in the end and leaves the girl crying
Don't wanna look out my window and see the sunshine

It's a long, long way back to Memphis
It's a long, long way back home
It's a long, long way back to Memphis
But some people, some places are best left alone

I put on my shoes, turn off the lights
Slip out into another lonely night
I am a stranger to these streets they hold no memories
But sometimes I hear your voice blowing round in the breeze

It's a long, long way back to Memphis…

Lately that old river
It’s been rollin through my mind

It's a long, long way back to Memphis…

Thanks for "Red Kites". Well, the whole album actually. Saw an Uncut magazine review out here in the southern Utah dust and thought I should give it a listen. Glad I did. Jerry Cooney
