"I Have Never Been To Memphis" lyrics

"I Have Never Been To Memphis"

I come from California
Where you say no one grows old
Y'all drive too fast
But you say it so slow
With that southern style, baby
It drives me crazy
And I have to laugh

I have never been to Memphis
But if you're there
I will pack my bags, and go

Oh even though it never rains here
And the sun is always shining
I have never met a girl like you
And I'm tired of trying
I have never been to Memphis
You're all crazy about Jesus
Back where you're from
You get baptized in rivers
Where the deep water runs
And that's alright by me
I love that you believe in
Something you can't touch
Something you can't see

I have never been to Memphis
But if you're there
I will pack my bags, and go

Oh even though, I'm not afraid to fly
But I am afraid to fall
I've been painting it by numbers
You've been splashing it on the wall
And I can see the colors running
Lets me know just where to go after all yeah after all
I've gotta get there baby
Oh yeah, you know I've gotta get myself there

I have never been to Memphis
But if you're there
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
I'm on my way
Gotta get myself to maybe
I have never been to Memphis
But if you're there
I have never been to Memphis
But if you're there

You're all crazy 'bout Jesus
Back where you're from
Get baptized in rivers
Where the deep water runs
