"Don't Mention Memphis"
(Randy Bishop / Bill Labounty)

Mister, you can take me into Little Rock
I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck
I'll listen all night if you want to talk
Just don't mention Memphis

And we can talk about your family
Politics and music and philosophy
Any old subject's alright with me
Just don't mention Memphis

[Chorus:]
Or blue eyes and light brown hair
An angel wavin' to me from the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did was leave her standin' there
So, don't mention Memphis

Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup
We'll make Texas with a little luck
And I'm hangin' with you 'til the sun comes up
So, don't mention Memphis

[Chorus:]
Or blue eyes and light brown hair
An angel wavin' to me from the top of the stairs
The hardest thing I did was leave her standin' there
So, don't mention Memphis

[Outro:]
I don't wanna talk about Memphis
And the hardest thing I did was leave my baby there
So, don't mention Memphis
I don't wanna talk about Memphis
