Lyrics
I loosen up my collar when it's warm outside
I adjust my clothing based on the weather conditions.
And I wear a heavy coat when it's cold
I wear a warm coat in cold weather.
I call up the doctor when my fever's high
I contact a doctor when I have a high fever.
See a tailor when my suit gets old
I consult a tailor when my suit becomes old.
And when I need a little company
When I desire companionship,
There's only one girl I wanna see
There's only one specific girl I want to be with.
And she lives in Memphis, Tennessee
She resides in Memphis, Tennessee.
I think I'll Memphis me
I'm contemplating embracing the spirit or essence of Memphis.
One more time, yeah, yeah
Expressing the intention to embrace Memphis again.
Memphis me, one more time
Reiterating the desire to embrace Memphis again.
It's early in the morning in Birmingham
It's early morning in Birmingham.
And I wish that I could stay in bed
Expressing a wish to stay in bed.
'Cause I'm dreaming that she's with me here where I am
Imagining the presence of the desired person in the current location.
And I know it's only in my head
Acknowledging that this presence is only a figment of imagination.
When I need a little company
When seeking companionship,
She's the only girl I wanna see
She is the sole person I desire to be with.
But she lives in Memphis, Tennessee
However, she resides in Memphis, Tennessee.
I guess I'll Memphis me
Considering the idea of embracing the essence of Memphis again.
One more time, yeah, yeah
Expressing the intention to embrace Memphis again.
Memphis me, one more time
Reiterating the desire to embrace Memphis again.
A farmer has to live where his crops will grow
A farmer must live where his crops thrive.
And a peddler has to sell his wares
A peddler needs to sell his goods.
The children need to learn what the teachers know
Children require education from teachers.
Everybody needs someone who cares
Everyone needs someone who cares.
So when I need a little company
When seeking companionship,
There's only one place for me to be
There's only one place I want to be.
And it's here in Memphis, Tennessee
That place is Memphis, Tennessee.
I had to Memphis me, one more time, yeah, yeah
I had to embrace the essence of Memphis again.
Memphis me, one more time, yeah, yeah
Reiterating the decision to embrace Memphis again.
One more time, Memphis me
Once more, embracing the essence of Memphis.
One more time
Repeating the desire to embrace Memphis again.
