๐ Lyrics
Called her from a payphone down on Beale Street
On my way to Birmingham
Said she was tired of never seeing me
She needed more than a guitar man
As the lonesome notes filled the midnight sky
I wiped my tears and wished that I was
Anywhere but Memphis
Any other place would have made a difference
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
Ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
Wish she could've worked up her courage
And let me down in Little Rock
Or even as far back as Phoenix
When I stopped to call from that truck stop
Telling me sooner was just too hard
She could've waited 'til later to break my heart
Anywhere but Memphis
Any other place would have made a difference
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
Ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
It ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
On my way to Birmingham
Said she was tired of never seeing me
She needed more than a guitar man
As the lonesome notes filled the midnight sky
I wiped my tears and wished that I was
Anywhere but Memphis
Any other place would have made a difference
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
Ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
Wish she could've worked up her courage
And let me down in Little Rock
Or even as far back as Phoenix
When I stopped to call from that truck stop
Telling me sooner was just too hard
She could've waited 'til later to break my heart
Anywhere but Memphis
Any other place would have made a difference
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
Ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
Where the blues pour out of the dines and bars
It ain't no place for a broken heart
She could've told me in Baton Rouge or Dallas
Anywhere but Memphis
