This very night, the train was right on time
Baby stepped aboard and left the both of us behind
Well, you've gotta make your day and I've gotta make my way
Somehow, someway from here and you Memphis morning

She's to me what sunshine is to you
Her train cross the river flyin', now what will I do
Like sunshine helps make your day, she helped in her own way
Without sunshine, flowers waste away Memphis morning

Oh, Memphis morning, you're not so pretty anymore

Raise your bridges, start your whistles blowing
I don't know what I'm hanging 'round for Memphis morning
Now you hold too many memories

Best thing I can do is leave you with 'em without me
Well, if I come back this way now, I'll try to plan my day
So you won't see me passin' through Memphis morning
Oh, Memphis morning, oh, Memphis morning, oh, Memphis morning

Memphis Morning Lyrics
