There's a town that I call home

Where all the streets are paved with soul

Down on Beale there's a honky-tonk bar

So hear the wail of a blues guitar

Have a beer and drop a dime in the blind man's jar

The blues sing softly in the air like a Sunday morning prayer

Just one more drink and you'll see God everywhere

That's how Memphis lives in me

Memphis knows me

I'm just a man from Tennessee

I can't be what I can't be

All I know is Memphis lives in me

Can't be what I can't be

All I know is Memphis lives

All I know is Memphis lives in me
