I'm goin' back to Wentzville |
|
Have myself a really good time |
|
Back to Wentzville |
|
Leave these Memphis blues behind |
|
Do you remember Marie? |
|
Or sweet Betty Jean? |
|
They used to call me long distance from New Orleans |
|
I'd ride'em around in my Cadillac car |
|
They were sweet rock 'n' rollers, I was their star |
|
Cruisin Highway Z in my coupe de ville |
|
Until the wee wee hours outside of Wentzville |
|
Back to Wentzville, I'll take any airline |
|
Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind |
|
Every Saturday night I had a little rendez-vous |
|
Beautiful Delilah I'm a talkin' bout you |
|
You pulled the strings to my driftin' heart |
|
Together we always will be from the start |
|
She's only 16 but oh what a thrill |
|
I can hardly wait to get back to Wentzville |
|
Back to Wentzville, long distance get me there on time |
|
Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind |
|
Alright |
|
Well the good times in St. Louie |
|
I can still recall |
|
Yeah, the show-me state |
|
Sure is great |
|
But one of those girls is Baby Doll |
|
Woo, back to Wentzville, I'll take any airline |
|
Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind |
|
I took the downbound train for ole Mexico |
|
I ran into Lawanda at a rock n roll show |
|
We danced right around til our feet got sore |
|
Split for Californey in my Mustang Ford |
|
She's in the promised land where she waits for me still |
|
Cause the law wouldn't let me bring her back to Wentzville |
|
Back to Wentzville long distance get me there on time |
|
Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind |
|
Back to Wentzville long distance get me there on time |
|
Back to Wentzville, leave these Memphis blues behind |
