Lyrics

[Verse 1]
No distance information
Give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party
Tryna get in touch with me
She could not leave her number
But I know a place to call
'Cause my uncle took a message
And he wrote it on the wall
[Verse 2]
Help me information
Get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here
From Memphis, Tennessee
Her house is on the south side
High up on the ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge
[Verse 3]
Last time I saw Marie
She's waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheek
That trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old
Information, please
Try to put me through to her
In Memphis Tennessee
Written by: Chuck Berry, Danyel Gérard, Pierre Barouh
