Going Back To Memphis

Going back to Memphis, going back for good
Going back to Memphis, like I always knew I would

Woke up this evening, an aching in my bones
It’s rough enough in good times, living on your own
in New York or Frisco, yeah I’ve been around
But you can tell everybody I’m Memphis bound

Going back to Memphis, back where I belong
I miss the Mississippi, been away too long
Gonna see my momma, all of my kin,
And you can tell everybody I’m back again

Going back to Memphis, going back for good
Going back to Memphis, like I always knew I would
Going back to Memphis, going back for good
Going back to Memphis, like I always knew I would

Going back to Memphis, where it all began
Rendezvous for barbeque, I know you understand
Play guitar on Beale Street, gonna make my way
And you can tell everybody I’m here to stay

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Going back where I belong
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I’ve been away too long

Going back to Memphis, another brand new start
Left a girl in trouble, though she had my heart
Gonna find that woman that I left behind
Gonna find that woman and get it right this time

Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
Going back where I belong
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah
I’ve been away too long

Going back to Memphis, going back for good
Going back to Memphis, like I always knew I would
Going back to Memphis, going back for good
Going back to Memphis, like I always knew I would
