MARTIN BILLIE RAY I Ve Never Been To Memphis Lyrics
I Ve Never Been To Memphis
eh-hee, oh-hoh, well

I saw my face in the paper today
it said hello to the face that i saw at home
[then] I read a tale of a girl with my name
it was not the one that I know, no

you shook my hand and you said you understand
and you said that you know where I`m coming from
but the only place that I`ve ever been
is far, far from known

what you say about me
stabs me in the heart
what you read about me is a shot in the dark (yeah)

I`ve never been to Memphis
I`ve never seen my good-luck star
I`ve never seen Las Vegas lights
laughing at the dark
I`ve never dragged the train of my dress
down Elvis Presley Boulevard
I`ve never been to Memphis
cross my heart, hm

I want to see my name in neon lights
cause the words that you write they don`t last, my friends
they only shine a day at a time
and leave stains on my hands, well

so what`s the use in rolling the dice w
hen you already know how it`s gonna fall
you think that if you play your cards right
you might deal with us all

what`re gonna do
when a seven falls
will the rolling thunder scatter all of your cards

I`ve never been to Memphis, no
I`ve never seen my good-luck star
I`ve never seen Las Vegas lights
laughing at the dark
I`ve never dragged the train of my dress
down Elvis Presley Boulevard
I`ve never been to Memphis
cross my heart, cross my heart

[guitar solo]

ooh yes
believe me (hm)

I`ve never been to Memphis, no no
I`ve never seen my good-luck star, baby
I wanna see Las Vegas lights, yeah
laughing at the dark
I`ve never dragged the train of my dress
down Elvis Presley Boulevard
I`ve never been to Memphis
cross my heart, cross my heart

I`ve never been to Memphis, no no no
I`ve never seen my good-luck star, yeah
I`ve never seen Las Vegas lights, yeah
laughing at the dark
I`ve never dragged the train of my dress
down Elvis Presley Boulevard (yeah)
I`ve never been to Memphis
cross my heart, yeah

I`ve never been to Memphis, no no
I`ve never seen my good-luck star (no no)
I`ve never seen Las Vegas lights, yeah
laughing at the dark
I`ve never dragged a train of my dress
through the Nevada desert sand
I`ve never been to Memphis
raise my hand, raise my hand, baby, yeah

[adlibbing until end:]

tell it how it is, c`mon on
whoo!
cross my heart
[laughter]
whow! that`s the one - that was the one
