Memphis in the Meantime
I got some'n' to say little girlYou might not like my styleBut we been hangin' around this townJust a little too long a whileYou say you're gonna get your act togetherGonna take it out on the roadBut if I don't get out o' here pretty soonMy head's going to explodeSure I like country musicAnd I like mandolinsBut right now I need a TelecasterThrough a Vibrolux turned up to 10Let's go to Memphis in the meantime babyAhw, Memphis in the meantime girlLet's go to Memphis in the meantime babyMemphis in the meantime girlI need a little shot of that rhythm babyMixed up with these country bluesI wanna trade in these ol' cowboy bootsFor some fine Italian shoesForget the mousse and the hairspray sugarWe don't need none of thatJust a little dab'll do ya girlUnderneath a pork pie hatSongtexteUntil hell freezes overMaybe you can wait that longBut I don't think Ronnie Milsap's gonna everRecord this song[Repeat: x2]Lets go to Memphis in the meantime babyLet's go to Memphis in the meantime girlLets go to Memphis in the meantime babyLet's go to Memphis in the meantime girlMaybe there's nothin' happenin' thereBut maybe there's somethin' in the airBefore our upper lips get stiffMaybe we need us a big ol' whiffIf we could just get off-a that beat little girlMaybe we could find the grooveAt least we can get ourselves a decent mealDown at the Rendezvous'Cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chordGirl, it's gonna do me inI need to hear some trumpet and saxophoneYou know sound as sweet as sinAnd after we get good and greasyBaby we can come on homePut the cow horns back on the CadillacAnd change the message on the CordaphoneButLets go to Memphis in the meantime babyLet's go to Memphis in the meantime girlLets go to Memphis in the meantime babyLet's go to Memphis in the meantime girlI'm a talking about MemphisI'm talkin' 'bout MemphisMemphis Aus Songtexte Mania
