Cry Like Memphis

The home of the blues is where I live Trapped inside these lonely walls that don't forgive Surrounded by a memory Her goodbye haunts me like a Beale Street melody And I've done everything But get down on my knees And if my tears will set This ghost inside me free I'm gonna cry like Memphis I'm going three times under Gonna drown my sorrows With tears that roll like thunder 'Til I can find the strength 'Til I can carry on I'm gonna cry like Memphis When they heard the King was gone Love me tender, cuts through the dark Coming from an open window of a passing car And in that moment, oh, I believe That I can almost feel your body next to me But one heart beating Slowly brings me back around I know you're gone And I know when I breakdown I'm gonna cry like Memphis I'm going three times under Gonna drown my sorrows With tears that roll like thunder 'Til I can find the strength 'Til I can carry on I'm gonna cry like Memphis When they heard the King was gone 'Til I can find the strength 'Til I can carry on I'm gonna cry like Memphis When they heard the King was gone
