"That's How I Got to Memphis" lyrics
"That's How I Got to Memphis"
(originally by Tom T. Hall)
If you love somebody enough
You go wherever they go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
If you love somebody enough
You go where your heart wants to go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
I know if you'd seen her, you'd tell me 'cause you are my friend, right?
I've got to find her and find out the trouble she's in
If you tell me she's not here
I'll follow the trail of her tears
That's how I got to Memphis, oh
That's how I got to Memphis
She used to get mad and she used to say
She'd come back to Memphis someday
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
Well, I haven't eaten a bite
I haven't slept for three days or nights
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
I've got to find her and tell her that I love her so
I'll never rest till I find out why she had to go
Thank you for your precious time
Forgive me if I start to cry
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

What about about this house we bought? We don't need it
