Lyrics

This is based on a true story but
All the names are changed
The destination is so real
And everything is strange

The street lit up like candlefireworks
"Big-Ass Brew" at every turn
Necks outstretched to the Mississippi
M-I-S-S-I, S-S-I, S-S-I

I've got the Beale St.
Memphis, Tennessee
Morning after blues
(Repeat)

The air, hot syrup, clogs my lungs
The sweat crawls from my pores
Soda refills are on the house
Bring me just one more

Climbing on the Graceland bus
In another world
I left my mark in the parking lot
With my other girl

I've got the Beale St.
Memphis, Tennessee
Morning after blues
(Repeat)

I've got the Beale St. Memphis Tennessee morning after...
I think someone was swinging from the rafters

I've got the Beale St. Memphis Tennessee morning after...
I remember a whole lotta laughter

I've got the Beale St.
Memphis, Tennessee
Morning after blues

It could happen to you
