Long distance information, give me Memphis Tennessee |
|
Help me find a party that tried to get in touch with me |
|
She could not leave a number but I know who placed the call |
|
'cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall |
|
Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie |
|
She's the only one who'd call me here from Memphis Tennessee |
|
Her home is on the south side, high upon a ridge |
|
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge |
|
Last time I saw Marie she was wavin' me goodbye |
|
With "hurry-home" drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye |
|
But we were pulled apart because her mom did not agree |
|
And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee |
|
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add |
|
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had |
|
Marie is only six years old, information please |
|
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee |
