Mister, you can take me into Little Rock I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck I'll listen all night if you wanna talk Just don't mention Memphis We can talk about your family Politics and music and philosophy Any ol' subject's all right with me Just don't mention Memphis Or blue eyes And light brown hair An angel wavin' to me From the top of the stairs The hardest thing I did Was leave her standing there So don't mention Memphis Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup We'll make Texas with a little luck And I'm hanging with you 'til the sun comes up So don't mention Memphis Or blue eyes And light brown hair An angel wavin' to me From the top of the stairs The hardest thing I did Was leave her standing there So don't mention Memphis
