Memphis Tennessee Songtext
von Dave Berry & The Cruisers

Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee,
Help me find the party there who got in touch with me,
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
The phone boy took the message and he wrote it on the wall.

Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie,
She′s the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee,
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge,
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge.


Help me, information, more than that I cannot add,
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had,
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree,
Tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee.
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add,
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had,
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree,
Tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee.

Last time I saw Marie she′s waving me good-bye,
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye,
Marie is only six years old, information please,
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee.
