Lyrics



SITTIN PICKIN THIS HERE GUITAR

AND I?M THINKIN WISHIN I WENT OUT TO THAT BAR

BUT I JUST SAT THERE IN THE BIG CHAIR

ALL COZY AND WARM I WATCHED A MOVIE ON THE TV

I SEEN ONCE OR TWICE BEFORE

WELL IT?S 10 IN THE MORNIN IN MEMPHIS

I?M WATCHIN THE CARS ROLL ON BY

AND THERE?S A TRAIN THAT PASSES EVERY 10 MINUTES

AND I CAN FEEL THE ELECTRICITY COMIN OFF THE POWER LINES

SHOULD I GO INSIDE IT?S GETTIN WAY TOO COLD

BUT IT?S SO HOT THERE LORD I SWEAR THE THERMOSTAT?S AT 104

THAT DOG?S BEEN BARKIN ALL MORNIN

AND THERE?S A PLANE FLYIN UP ABOVE

IT?S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE I FELL TOO DEEP IN LOVE

WELL IT?S 10 IN THE MORNIN IN MEMPHIS

I?M WATCHIN THE CARS ROLL ON BY

AND THERE?S A TRAIN THAT PASSES EVERY 10 MINUTES

AND I CAN FEEL THE ELECTRICITY COMIN OFF THE POWER LINES

SHIFTIN BRAIN WAVES IN MY MIND
