[Intro]
Now, this is sure 'nuff the right one
'Cause I feel it
[Verse 1]
I've been around a few days
I've seen a lot of thing go my way
I come up real hard the slow road
Down the music business show road
[Verse 2]
I'm sure I've been to your town
I've been to ev'ry rich or poor town
You can't judge a town by it's size
In Tennessee I found a real prize
[Chorus]
To get my soul, to get my soul
Well, I-I had to go from Memphis for to get my soul
And ev'rybody know
To get your soul, to get your soul
Well, you got to go to Memphis for to get your soul
Now, look-a here
[Verse 3]
You can walk a country long mile
When you get to Memphis you'll smile
People talk soft and low way
But don't you worry do things slow way
[Verse 4]
And talk about your Southеrn cookin'
In Memphis girls is sure good-lookin'
It makes mе feel all kind of funny
When I'm lookin' at them Memphis honeys
[Chorus]
And get my soul
Ev'rybody know, get your soul
Well, I-I had to go to Memphis for to get my soul
Whoa, oh, to get my soul
To get your soul, yeah
Don't you worry down in Memphis
You'll get your soul
[Outro]
That's right
Way down South
Gonna find a hidden bounty
Way down there in Shelby County
That's right, that's right
You want some good cookin'?
You go look up Miss Mary
She do you right
That's right, that's right
She knows how to please
With them greens and them black eyed peas
That's right, crawdad
Down in Memphis you sure 'nuff find your soul
Got more soul than a shoe shop, baby
That's right, ev'rybody know
Oh, Lordy
