RANDY HOUSER lyrics : "Somewhere South Of Memphis"

Well, I need a sip of muddy water
From my daddy's wishin' well
Scattered his ashes on the delta

From here on I'll be drinkin' by myself

Where pink Cadillacs and blue suede shoes

Meet steel guitars and new grass blues
The music there, it ain't turned into business
Tonight I'll be somewhere south of Memphis


Where the cotton grows from the Mississippi mud
And the blues runs deep in your blood

I love this land with God as my witness
I'll live and die somewhere south of Memphis


Well, I've seen my share of big ol' cities
But I couldn't wait to get back home
Well, they'll play you a, a front porch song for free

That reminds you that they ain't been free for long

Where them juke joints jump on a Friday night

And you don't need a gun to settle no fight
And come Sunday mornin', hell, you'll be beggin' for forgiveness
That's just life somewhere south of Memphis


Where the cotton grows from the Mississippi mud
And the blues runs deep in your blood

I love this land with God as my witness
I'll live and die somewhere south of Memphis


Yeah, where the cotton grows from the Mississippi mud
And the blues runs deep in your blood
Well, I love this land with God as my witness

Well, I'll live and die
I'll said I'll, I'll live and die somewhere south of Memphis
That's just life
