Going To Memephis - Johnny Cash[00:00:01]
Bring a drink of water Leroy[00:01:18]
Bring a drink of water no[00:01:21]
If I could get to the mercy man[00:01:24]
He'd give me some I know[00:01:28]
I got a gal in Vicksburg[00:01:31]
Bertha is her name[00:01:34]
Wish I's tied to Bertha[00:01:37]
Instead of this ball and chain[00:01:40]
I'm goin' to Memphis that's right Lord yeah[00:01:43]
A dude took all my money[00:01:49]
Wouldn't let me see the cards[00:01:52]
I owe the boss about a hundred years[00:01:56]
For sleepin' in his backyard[00:01:59]
I'm goin' to Memphis yeah Memphis[00:02:02]
Yeah I'm goin' to Memphis[00:02:04]
Like a bitter weed I'm a bad seed[00:02:08]
But when that levee's through and I am too[00:02:11]
Let the honky tonk roll on[00:02:14]
Come mornin' I'll be gone[00:02:17]
I'm goin' to Memphis yeah Memphis[00:02:20]
I never been to Chicago[00:02:26]
But it must be a mighty fine place that's right[00:02:29]
I couldn't get past Tennessee[00:02:33]
With Mississippi all over my face[00:02:35]
I'm goin' to Memphis that's right Lord Memphis[00:02:38]
Well the freezin' ground at night[00:02:41]
Is my own foldin' bed[00:02:44]
Pork salad is my bread and meat[00:02:49]
And it will be till I'm dead[00:02:51]
Well I brought me a little water[00:02:59]
In a Mr Prince Albert can[00:03:02]
But the boss man caught me drinkin' it[00:03:05]
And I believe he broke my hand[00:03:08]
They all call me crazy for sassin' Mr Scott[00:03:27]
My brother was killed for a deed I did[00:03:33]
But I dis remember what yeah[00:03:35]
Well another boy is down[00:03:40]
The shovel burned him out[00:03:43]
Let me stand on his body[00:03:46]
To see what the shoutin's about[00:03:49]
I'm goin' to Memphis yeah[00:03:52]
Like a bitter weed I'm a bad seed[00:03:58]
But when that levee's through and I am too[00:04:01]
Let the honky tonk roll on[00:04:04]
Come mornin' I'll be gone[00:04:07]
I'm goin' to Memphis yeah Memphis[00:04:10]
