Lyrics
Next time I'm in Memphis
Tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna chase me some of those Memphis women
Cause they sure know how to move
I'll pick a warm night and treat them right
Just you wait and see
What I teach and how I preach
Those girls from Tennessee
Women and weather all go together
Women and weather so sweet
Even though I just met her, regardless the weather
Baby bring on some of your heat
When I go down to New Orleans
Tell you what I'm gonna do
Gonna soak up some of that cajun sun
And get some delta blues
Sweet sweet Anna from Louisiana
Haricots sont pas sales
Swing with me baby all night long in the
Good old Zydeco way
Chorus
Guitar solo
Southern California I gotta warn you
Ain't for the faint of heart
All those beautiful women down there I swear
I don't know where to start
Long tall Sally just stay in the alley
Cause a tanned girl is where it's at
Never go wrong with a smile and song
And the weather on a thermostat
Chorus
