"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 follow wherever they go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
If you need somebody enough
Go where your heart want to go
And 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
I've got to find her and find out the trouble she's in
If you tell me that she ain't here
I'll just follow a trail of her tears
And that's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

Used to get mad and she'd say
She'd come back to Memphis someday
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
I haven't eaten one bite
Slept for three days and 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 just can't rest 'til I find out why she had to go
Thank you for your precious time
Forgive me if I start to cryin'
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

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
