Testo Memphis / Marie - George Thorogood & The Destroyers

Testo della canzone Memphis / Marie (George Thorogood & The Destroyers), tratta dall'album The George Thorogood Collection

Long Distance Information, give me Memphis, Tennessee,

help me find the party that tried to get in touch with me

They would not leave a number, but I know the place to call,

'cause my uncle took a message, and he wrote it on the wall

Long Distance Information, get in touch with my Marie

she's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis, Tennessee

Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge,

just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge.

Long Distance Information, more than that I cannot add,

only that I miss her and all the fun we had

But we were torn apart because her Mom did not agree,

and tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee

Now, last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye,

with "hurry home" drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes

Marie is only 6 years old. Information, please,

try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee

Yes, oh, yes, Long Distance, I'll accept the charge, I'll pay,

but which loved one is calling me? I did not hear you say

Both are deep within my heart, her Mom and my Marie,

it's so good to hear your voice from Memphis, Tennessee

Oh, you mean so much to me, more than you'll ever know,

surely you have not forgot how much I love you so

If you would remember, dear, and sometimes talk to me,

maybe that would reunite our home in Tennessee

Last time I saw you, just before I had to leave

you didn't want to see me off, and promised not to grieve

My heart was torn apart, as I looked back at Marie,

and there the pieces still remain with you in Tennessee

I Guess I should stop talking, after all, you placed the call,

but any way that I can help. you know I'll help you all

Then her mother told me to come back and see Marie,

and live together in our home in Memphis, Tennessee
