I plucked a rose from her garden And I laid it softly on her head And I kneel down by the tombstone And I began to weep, and call out her name Oh, it's crying time in Memphis And ain't nobody here to cry, but me Oh, it's goodbye time in Memphis And ain't nobody here to say goodbye, but me I remember so clearly how we used to kiss And the way she laid her body close to mine And the way she tried so hard to please me When we madе love time after timе I look around for all her friends The ones, that said they loved her so But now she's gone, and I'm standing here all alone Deep down in my heart I'm hurting, so... Oh, I've got to leave this town they call Memphis You see, I'm sad I lost they only one I ever loved And for me, nothing will ever be the same Ain't need any more time, they done engraved her name Oh, it's crying time in Memphis But ain't nobody here to cry, but me Oh, it's goodbye time in Memphis And ain't nobody here to cry, but me Goodbye, my love, goodbye May the angels watch over you in the sky Goodbye, baby, goodbye, goodbye...
