I Ain't from Memphis Songtext
von Charley Crockett

I went down to New Orleans
Lookin′ for a friend
I went down to New Orleans
Lookin' for a friend
I went down to New Orleans
Didn′t I come back up again?

I ain't from Memphis, honey
I ain't from Nashville, Tennessee
Ain′t from Alabama
And I ain′t tryin' to be
No ma′am, I'm from Texas
And the blues run deep in me


Oo-wee
Oo-wee
Taxi done me wrong, it′s just that she don't agree

I ain′t from Memphis, honey
I ain't from Nashville, Tennessee
Ain't from Alabama
And I ain′t tryin′ to be
No ma'am, I′m from Texas
And the blues run deep in me

And I cry like this

Oo-wee
Oo-wee
Taxi done me wrong, it's just that she don′t agree

Oo-wee
Oo-wee
Taxi done me wrong, it's just that she don′t agree
