I saw the Mississippi
And I heard the blues on Beale
I drove overnight to Nashville
Where that music scene's so real
But this hotel room is lonely
Though this trip is almost through
I'm counting down the hours
Til I'm back home to you
When I get home from Memphis
I'm gonna wrap you in my arms
Gonna hold you tight and closely
Gonna thank my lucky stars
When I get home from Memphis
I won't be blue
When I pull up to our house
And love on you
I stood in The house of the king
And the studio of Sun
Got to see where all my heroes
Where they rose to number one
But all this time that I've been wishin
That you were sitting here
Looking forward to be close again
I've been away to long this year
When I get home from Memphis
I'm gonna wrap you in my arms
Gonna hold you tight and closely
Gonna thank my lucky stars
When I get home from Memphis
I won't be blue
When I pull up to our house
And love on you
When I get home from Memphis
I'm gonna wrap you in my arms
Gonna hold you tight and closely
Gonna thank my lucky stars
When I get home from Memphis
I won't be blue
When I pull up to our house
And love on you
When I get home from Memphis
When I get home from Memphis
