Lyrics

I hitchhiked up to memphis, a young boy in my prime
I thought that big old city would ease my georgia mind
After just one hour, I met a southern girl
She said they call me the queen of memphis
And then she took me around the world

Chorus
I saw stars dancing on the water
I heard elvis singing blue suede shoes
That old muddy river was my witness
The night I fell in love with the queen of memphis

I woke up the next morning a prisoner of her charms
She showed me things I'd never seen back there on that farm
She set my soul on fire, she completed all my dreams
A boy became a man that night in the arms of the memphis queen

Repeat chorus

Just like that old man river she keeps rolling through my mind
And you know I won't forget her 'cause she was one of a kind

Repeat chorus
