Austin Lucas - Alone In Memphis lyrics

rate me

When I am gone, I know the waiting

Gets to you

It’s like the world stopped turning

You’re frozen, no one seems to notice

The absence of the wind

I know you were only

It’s the kind only I feel out here

I don’t wanna alone in Memphis

I don’t wanna alone in New Orleans

I don’t wanna dwell in cheap motels

Dirty sheets and hourly rigs

I just wanna put the pedal to the floor

Burn up the stage like an old troubadour

I wanna get stoned

But I don’t wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

And I’ve been down

In Mississippi river towns

For far too long

There’s something about the night life

Something about this bar

There’s something in the music

The brass, the drum beat like a heart

It reminds of your eyes and cold black hair

I am growing ever lonelier out here

I don’t wanna alone in Memphis

I don’t wanna alone in New Orleans

I don’t wanna dwell in cheap motels

Dirty sheets and hourly rigs

I just wanna put the pedal to the floor

Burn up the stage like an old troubadour

I wanna get stoned

But I don’t wanna be alone in Memphis anymore

I don’t wanna be alone in Memphis

I don’t wanna be alone in New Orleans

I don’t wanna dwell in cheap motels

Dirty sheets and hourly rigs

I just wanna put the pedal to the floor

Burn up the stage like an old troubadour

I wanna get stoned

But I don’t wanna be alone in Memphis anymore
