Memphis in June

Memphis in June

A shady veranda

under a Sunday blue sky

Memphis in June

and cousin Amanda

is making a rhubarb pie

I can hear the clock inside

a-ticking and tocking

Everything is peaceful and dandy

I can see old granny across

the street still a-rocking

Watching the neighbours go by

Memphis in June

with sweet oleander

Blowing perfume in the air

Up jumps the moon

to make it that much grander

It's paradise Brother take my advice

Nothing's half as nice as Memphis in June

Memphis in June with sweet oleander

Blowing perfume in the air

Up jumps the moon

to make it that much grander

It's paradise brother take my advice

Nothing's half as nice as Memphis in June
