Dawson Smith & the Dissenters - Back to Memphis Lyrics

Back To Memphis
If I ever get back to Memphis
I know just what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna hang around the house with Elvis
Kick back in the Jungle room
I'm gonna ride in the back of a pink Cadillac
Straight out of the Graceland gates
Cos when the sun goes down
I'm heading into town
Got no time to waste
Cos if I ever get back to Memphis
The one thing I'm gonna do
I'm gonna go with you

I'm gonna call in on BB King
Eat some barbecue and hear him sing
Gonna have a good time with sweet Lucille
And then take a walk up and down Beale
I'm gonna make my way to the Rum Boogie cafe
Let Queen Ann's band rock my soul away
Then to the Blues Hall for very last chance
The Hawk gonna blow and the place gonna dance
But if I ever get back to Memphis
The one thing I'm gonna do
I'm gonna go with you

Cos Tennessee is the place to be
Whiskey and barbecue and big ass beer
The girls are pretty and the nights are long
Home of the blues man you cant go wrong

Brother Cropper gonna write me a song
Brother Otis gonna sing along
Wilson Pickett, Sam and Dave
Stax is the place soulville USA
Remember the truth of the Reverend King
The Mississippi river wash away my sins
Gibson guitars and fiftys cars
Lanskys clothes and Jerry Lees rock and roll
If I ever get back to Memphis
The one thing I'm gonna do
I said the one thing I'm gonna do
I'm gonna go with you
