D – – – – – Queen of Memphis, Confederate Railroad, 1992
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 this Southern girl, She said
“They call me the Queen of Memphis.”
And then she took me around the world
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
[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
[CHORUS]
