Lyrics
Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you kiss me once or twice? Make me feel so nice, I'd never run Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done Well, you dated my big sister You took her to a show You went for some candy, along came Jim Dandy And they snuck right out of the door Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you kiss me once or twice? Make me feel so nice, I'd never run Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done Every time you saw my sister She had somebody new She's mean and she's evil like that little ol' boll weevil But I won't do the same to you Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you kiss me once or twice? Make me feel so nice, I'd never run Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done Well, you used to pull my pigtails And punch my turned-up nose But I've been a-growing and baby, it's been showing From my head down to my toes Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you? Hey Memphis, won't you kiss me once or twice? And make me feel so nice, I'd never run Whoa, hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done Ah, hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister done
