Wrong Side Of Memphis

Written：Matraca Berg/Gary Harrison

I've been living on the wrong side of Memphis

I'm really breaking away this time

A full tank of gas and a '69 Tempest

Taking me to that Nashville sign

No turnin' back, I've come too far

I'm headed down 40 with my old guitar

This ain't Graceland that's a fact

And I ain't driving no pink Cadillac

Chorus:

I've been living on the wrong side of Memphis

Gonna bronze these blue suede shoes

These cowboy boots are gettin' kinda restless

Ain't gotta single thing to lose

I've had this dream from a tender age

Callin' my name on the Opry stage

I can hear it sing loud and clear

200 miles and I'll be there

Repeat Chorus
