Lyrics

Roll on, roll on Memphis
Roll on, roll on Memphis
Yeah, Memphis grew up by the river
Those river boat captains tried to teach her wrong from right
Such a lovely child
She grew up fast and she grew up wild
Now she wants to sleep late in the mornings and
Keep me out all night
Oh Memphis
Roll on, roll on Memphis
You got to roll over
You got to roll on
Yeah Memphis likes blues and BBQ
She got great big legs, oh she’s sexy
And full of attitude
All heart and soul
She likes to watch that muddy river roll
She wants to ride the Mississippi, ride the Mississippi
Down to New Orleans
When we dance together
Her tender body close
Just like that winding river
My love is overflowing
Roll on, roll on Memphis
You got to roll over
Roll on, roll on Memphis
Yeah, Memphis grew up by the river
With the king, Stax & Sun, that delta rhythm in the night
And the church bells ring
Oh and the choir sings
And I get the feeling, I get the feeling
Everything gonna be alright
When we dance together
Her tender body close
Just like that winding river
Her love is overflowing
Roll on, roll on Memphis
Won’t you roll over
Roll on, roll on Memphis
Roll on
Roll on, roll on Memphis
Roll on
Roll on, roll on Memphis
