Talk Memphis - Jesse Winchester

Listen to you move your mouth

I bet you come from way down South

Please don’t tell me let me guess

You’re from the town that I love best

Talk Memphis, I wish you would

Talk Memphis, you sound so good

Talk Memphis, high on the bluff

I swear I can’t get enough

Listening to you talk that stuff

Talk Memphis, oh yeah, talk Memphis

Now let’s discuss some barbecue

We’ll talk about the Tigers too

Every little sweet thing that you say

Just turns me on like 'DIA

Talk Memphis, I wish you would

Talk Memphis, you sound so good

Talk Memphis, high on the bluff

I swear I can’t get enough

Listening to you talk that stuff

Talk Memphis, oh yeah, talk Memphis

I bet you bought some blue suede shoes

I bet you know West Memphis too

Cross that bridge on just two wheels

I bet you know how good that feels

Talk Memphis, I wish you would

Talk Memphis, you sound so good

Talk Memphis, high on the bluff

I swear I can’t get enough

Listening to you talk that stuff

Talk Memphis, oh yeah, talk Memphis

(repeat chorus)

Where were you when Elvis died

A lot of folks sat and cried

Well, I don’t mind telling you

That I did a little cryin too

Talk Memphis, I wish you would

Talk Memphis, you sound so good

Talk Memphis, high on the bluff

I swear I can’t get enough

Listening to you talk that stuff

Talk Memphis, oh please, talk Memphis
