Paroles de 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
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

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, and 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

Had a little luck, early in the night
I was up a thousand dollars, high as a kite
Then i blew all on one last hand of texas hold'em
I should have listened to my gut, and 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 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 swear i'll never do nothin like this
If i can make it back to memphis one more time

(solo)

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

If i can make it back to memphis
I said i'll never do nothin like this
If i can make it back to memphis one more time
