Make It Back To Memphis

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

I can make it back to Memphis

I'll never do nothin' like this

If I make it back to Memphis one more time

I went down to the corner, I called by buddy Ray

Said it's a bad idea, but let's do it anyway

So we called in sick, put a twenty in his Cadillac

A hurried note to my baby, I swear I'll be right back

We started headin' south on highway 61

Been a long time, since we made this run

They got riverboat gamblin', and tunes along the Mississippi

Now I'm praying to God, lady luck is with me

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis

I'll never do nothin' like this

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)

Had a little luck, early in the night

I was up a thousand dollars, high as a kite

Then I blew it all on one last hand of Texas hold'em

I should have listened to my gut, when it said fold'em

Wasn't keeping track, of just how much I drank

Should have stashed another twenty, in Ray's gas tank

Now the needles on empty, I can see it by the light of the moon

And if we make it back to Memphis

We're gonna have to make it on fumes

If I make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis

I swear I'll never do nothin' like this

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

(Ooh), if I can make it back to Memphis one more time

Ya, if I can make it back to Memphis

I'll never do nothin' like this

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time

If I can make it back to Memphis

I swear I'll never do nothin' like this

If I can make it back to Memphis one more time (woo)
