Verse
If you love somebody enough
You'll follow where ever they go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
If you love somebody enough
You'll go where your heart wants to go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
I know if you've seen her
you'll tell me `cause you are my friend
Now I've got to find her and find out the trouble
Well if you tell me that she's not here,
I'll just follow the trail of her tears
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

Verse
She would get mad and she used to say
she would come back to Memphis some day
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
Mmmmm I haven't eaten a bite
or slept for 3 days and nights
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
Oh I've got to find her and tell her that I l ove her so
And I'll never rest until I find out why she had to go --- ooo
Well thank you for your precious time,
forgive me if I start to cry
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
