Don’t Mention Memphis

[Verse 1]
Mister, you can take me into Little Rock?
I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck
I'll listen all night if you want to talk
Just don't mention Memphis

[Verse 2]
And we can talk about your family
Politics and music and philosophy
Any old subject's alright with me
Just don't mention Memphis

[Chorus]
Or blue eyes and light brown hair
An angel waving to me from the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did was leave her standing there
So don't mention Memphis

[Verse 3]
Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup
We'll make Texas with a little luck
And I'm hanging with you 'til the sun comes up
So don't mention Memphis

[Chorus]
Or blue eyes and light brown hair
An angel waving to me from the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did was leave her standing there
So don't mention Memphis

[Outro]
I don't wanna talk about Memphis
And the hardest thing I did was leave my baby there
So don't mention Memphis
I don't wanna talk about Memphis
