I got something to say little girl
You might not like my style
But we've been hanging around this town
Just a little too long a while

You say you're gonna get your act together
Gonna take it out on the road
But if I don't get outta here pretty soon
My head's going to explode

Boy, I like country music
And I do like mandolins
But right now I need a Telecaster
Through a Vibrolux turned up to ten

Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl
Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl

I need a little shot of that rhythm, baby
Mixed up with these country blues
I wanna trade in these old country boots
For some fine Italian shoes

Forget the mousse and the hairspray sugar
We don't need none of that
Just a little dab'll do ya girl
Underneath a pork pie hat

Until hell freezes over
Maybe you can wait that long
[?]

Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl
Go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl

Maybe there's nothin' happenin' there
Maybe there's somethin' in the air
Before our upper lips get stiff
Maybe we need us a big old whiff

If we could just get off of that beat, little girl
Maybe we could find the groove
At least we can get a decent meal
Down at the rendezvous

Cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chord
Girl, it's gonna do me in
I need to hear some trumpet and saxophone
You know sound as sweet as sin

And after we get good and greasy
Baby, we can come back home
Put the cow horns back on the Cadillac
And change the message on the code-a-phone

Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl
Go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl
