Johnny Rivers – Key of G
Long distance information, Give me Memphis, Tennessee. Help me find the party, That tried to get in touch with me. She could not leave a number, But I know right where to call, ’cause my uncle took a message, And he wrote it on the wall.
Help me, information, Get in touch with my Marie. She’s the only one who’d call me up from Memphis, Tennessee. Her home is on the south side, High upon a ridge – just a half a mile, From the Mississippi bridge.
Last time I saw her, She was wavin’ me goodbye. Hurry-home drops on her cheek, That trickled from her eye. We were pulled apart, Because her mom would not agree – and tore apart our happy home, In Memphis, Tennessee.
Help me, information, more than that I cannot ask – Only that I miss her, And all the fun we had. Marie is only six years old, Information, please. Try to put me through to her, In Memphis, Tennessee.
