I Have Never Been To Memphis Songtext / Lyric

I come from California

Where you say no one grows old

and y'all drive to fast.

But you say it so slow.

In that southern style, baby

That always drives me crazy.

And I start to laugh.



Cause, I have never been to Memphis

but if you're there

I will pack my bag, and go.

Cause I don't care, if it never rains here,

the suns always shining.

I have never met a girl like you

and I'm tired of trying.

I have never been to Memphis.






You're all crazy about Jesus (Amen)

back where you're from.

You got baptized in rivers

where the deep waters run.

That's alright by me,

yeah I love that you believe in

something you can't touch,

something you can't see.



Cause, I have never been to Memphis

but if you're there

I will pack my bag, and go.

Even though, never been afraid of flying

but I am afraid to fall.

I've been painting by numbers while you're

just splashing them on the wall.

And I see the colors running

it lets me know I'm headed home.



After all

(After all, after all)

After all

(After all, after all)

I've got to get myself there.

(I have never been)

And I've got to get myself there.

(I have never been)



Cause I have never been to Memphis

but if you're there.

I'm on my way

(oh, oh oh oh)

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

I'm on my way

I'm on my way

(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
