man from memphis - hannah blaylock lyrics

[verse 1]
mercy lord, they like their drink in memphis
it must be they can keep their water clean
they ain’t ashamed, it ain’t that bad, sippin’ from a paperback
dream of dyin’ young down on beale street
make no mistake, those hands are tough as leather
hidin’ under all those golden rings
they sure know how to spin you ’round
to take out all over town
but it ain’t worth it, hear my warning

[chorus]
when they come callin’, hootin’, hollerin’
leave them boys alone
they are torn between the linеs
they’re plantin’ roots in rock and roll
he’ll swеar to god he’ll tame his ways
but in the end they’re all the same
don’t marry a man from memphis
i would know

[verse 2]
you’ll think that you’re a match that’s made in heaven
that you finally found your ride or die
’cause they may love their mama and the king
but they sure do live the blues they sing
once you say i do you’re doomed for life
[chorus]
when they come callin’, hootin’, hollerin’
leave them boys alone
they are torn between the lines
they’re plantin’ roots in rock and roll
he’ll swear to god he’ll tame his ways
but in the end they’re all the same
don’t marry a man from memphis
i would know

[chorus]
when they come callin’, hootin’, hollerin’
leave them boys alone
they are torn between the lines
they’re plantin’ roots in rock and roll
ain’t too late to let him go
don’t make me say “i told you so”
don’t marry a man from memphis
i would know
oh, don’t marry a man from memphis
i would know
