Memphis in June, a shady veranda
Under a Sunday blue sky
Memphis in June, and cousin Amanda's
Makin' a rhubarb pie
I can hear the clock inside a-tickin' and a-tockin'
Everything is peacefully dandy
I can see ol' granny 'cross the street still a-rockin'
Watchin' the neighbors go by
Memphis in June, and sweet oleander
Blowin' perfume in the air
Up jumps the moon to make it that much grander
It's paradise, brother take my advice
Nothin's half as nice as Memphis in June
Up jumps the moon to make it that much grander
It's paradise, brother take my advice
Nothin's half as nice as Memphis in June
