lyrics

Memphis woman, built for speed
Got everything that I need
Always runs hot, never cold
Lord have mercy on my soul
Memphis woman, shotgun shack
Drivin’ me out and draggin’ me back

Memphis woman loves Jerry Lee
What Made Milwaukee Famous Made a Loser Out Of Me
Memphis woman loves Tennessee Three
Rock the house, quarter to three
Memphis woman on the telephone
Trying to wreck my happy home

Memphis woman looking good
Friday night, you knew she would
When she shake meat on the bone
Skinny woman bound to lose her home
Memphis woman ready or not
What I don’t want, she ain’t got

Drink just as much beer as you’re able
Memphis woman gonna drink you under the table
Laugh in your face, ask what’s wrong
Send you right back where you belong
Blood in her eye, sand on her feet
My Memphis woman can’t be beat

Memphis woman she’s my crave
Drive me down to my grave
Says she’s gonna bury me
With a silver spade by the willow tree
Rest in peace, and good luck
If you see her comin’ you better duck

Memphis woman don’t ask much
She only wants everything you got
Memphis woman by the record machine
Making out with my girlfriend Maybelline
Memphis woman 1, 2, 3
Sure done made a mess of me
