Lyrics
well, i got somethin' to say, little girl, you might not like my style, we've been hangin' around this town, a little too long this time, you say you're gonna get your act together, take it out on the road, if i don't get outta here pretty soon, my head's gonna sure explode, sure, i like country music, and i like mandolins, but right now i need a telecaster, turn it up on number ten, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, memphis in the meantime, girl, i need a little shot of that rhythm, baby, mixed up with country blues, i wanna trade in these cowboy boots, for some fine italian shoes, forget about the mousse and the hairspray, darlin', we don't need none of that, just a little ol' dab'll do ya, you poke it underneath your hat, until hell freeze over, maybe you can wait that long, but i don't think ronnie milsap's, ever gonna sing this song, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, memphis in the meantime, girl, maybe there's nothin' happenin' there, maybe something's in the air, oh, before our upper lips get stiff, baby, we could use just one more whiff, yeah, if we could just get off-a beat little girl, maybe we could find the groove, at least we could get ourselves a good meal, down at the rendezvous, 'cause one more heartfelt steel guitar, girl, it's gonna do me in, i need to hear a trumpet and the saxophone, you know it sounds sweet as sin, when we get good and greasy, baby, we can come back home, put the cow horns back on the cadillac, and change the message on the cord-a-phone, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, memphis in the meantime, girl, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, memphis in the meantime, girl, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, let's go to memphis in the meantime, baby, i know
