Can't Go Back To Memphis
(专辑: Bachman & Turner - 2010)
Low down dealin's in Memphis A
card game in a
back room I
was looking at my last dollar Hoping lady luck would come by soon I
played out on the
east side Till I
heard my reputation was in doubt It was starting to look like a
bad ride It looked like time for getting out They raised the
betting limit The
cards were falling fast I
bet away my future, I
already lost my past Now I
can't go back to Memphis I
played out every game I
can't go back to Memphis Everybody knows my name Too many people wanna even out the
score And I
can't go back to Memphis no more I
did my best to beat the
system But the
system put me back in my palace They maintained a
delicate balance Where no one got in nobody's face I
was trying to make a
dollar Just surviving in the
street I
fought the
gangs, I
fought the
law But they both had me beat Now I
can't go back to Memphis I
played out every game I
can't go back to Memphis Everybody knows my name Too many people wanna even out the
score And I
can't go back to Memphis no more I
can't go back to Memphis I
can't go back to Memphis No, no, I
can't go back to Memphis No, no, no, no I
can't go back to Memphis No, no, no, no Too many people wanna even out the
score And I
can't go back to Memphis no more
