Moon Over Memphis Songtext

Got me one eye openOn this last long stretchCan't wait to seeThe moon over Memphis shineAnd the gleaming skylineA too well travelled roadCan leave a good manLonesome and dryI'm counting on theMississippi riverTo welcome me byAnd the moon over MemphisTo light up my skyInstead of these darkAnd low cloudsWaiting to cry- Chorus-WhenI was youngerI needed to rambleNot a bad gambleFor such a hungerBut now all I long forNow that I'm road soreIs a moonlit nightWith the river in sightLooking through myBack door . . .
