Wrong Side Of Memphis

(gary harrison/matraca berg)



I've been living on the wrong side of memphis

I'm really breaking away this time

A full tank of gas and a '69 tempest

Taking me to that nashville sign



No turning back, i've come too far

I'm headed down 40 with my old guitar

This ain't graceland that's a fact

And i ain't driving a pink cadillac



I've been living on the wrong side of memphis

Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes

These cowboy boots are gettin' kinda restless

And i ain't gotta single thing to lose



I've had this dream from a tender age

Calling my name from the opry stage

I can hear it sing loud and clear

200 miles and i'll be there



I've been living on the wrong side of memphis

I'm really breaking away this time

A full tank of gas and a '69 tempest

Taking me to that nashville sign
