Up in Memphis the music's like a heatwave "White lightning" bound to drive you wild Mama's baby is in the heart of every schoolgirl "Love me tender" leaves them cryin' in the aisle The way he moved it was so, so sweet and true Always wanting more he'd leave you longing for --Chorus Every word and ev'ry song that he sang was for you In a flash he was gone it happened so soon What could you do? --Chorus |
