Forgot my six-string razor hit the sky Half way to Memphis 'fore I realized Well I rang the information my axe was cold They said she rides the train to oreoles Now it's a mighty long way down the dusty trail And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails 'n I look like a bum 'n I crawl like a snail All the way from Memphis Well I got to oreoles y'know it took a month And there was my guitar, electric junk Some spade said rock 'n' rollers, you're all the same Man that's your instrument. I felt so ashamed Now it's a mighty long way down rock 'n' roll Through the Bradford cities and the oreoles 'n you look like a star but you're still on the dole All the way from Memphis Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock 'n' roll From the Liverpool docks to the Hollywood bowl 'n you climb up the mountains 'n you fall down the holes All the way from Memphis Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock 'n' roll As your name gets hot so your heart grows cold 'n you gotta stay young man, you can never be old All the way from Memphis Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock 'n' roll Through the Bradford cities and the oreoles 'n you look like a star but you're really out on parole All the way from Memphis
