All The Way To Memphis Songtext
von Sananda Maitreya

I fell over backwards
When I got the news
She was a friend of many years
I pulled over off a
Gravel road somewhere
I′m in a mood to shed my blues
I'm in a mood

′Cause I left Tallahassee in the rain
And I drove all the night through Georgia
And I reached Tennessee before sunrise
And I cried all the way to Memphis


Some fingerprints were lifted
From her bedside tray
She never went to work that day
Her killer was a man
She met in acting class
Who cast her in his foul play
His foul play

'Cause I left Tallahassee in the rain
And I drove all the night through Georgia
And I reached Tennessee before sunrise
And I cried all the way to Memphis

An apple from the orchard
Falls onto the ground
And if there are no worms around
The sun will take and bake
Into a rotting core
Until the seeds are there no more
Are there no more

'Cause I left Tallahassee in the rain
And I drove all the night through Georgia
And I reached Tennessee before sunrise
And I cried all the way to Memphis
