Honey I've been down[00:00:10]
Down to Memphis town[00:00:12]
Where the people smile[00:00:14]
On you all the while[00:00:17]
Hospitality[00:00:19]
They were good to me[00:00:21]
Couldn't spend a dime[00:00:23]
Had the grandest time[00:00:26]
I went out a dancing with a tennessee dear[00:00:27]
A fellow there named[00:00:32]
Handy with a band you should hear[00:00:33]
While the gently swayed[00:00:37]
All them darkiest played real harmony[00:00:39]
I never will forget the tune that[00:00:44]
Handy called the Memphis blues[00:00:48]
They've got a fiddler there[00:00:54]
That always slickens his hair[00:00:56]
Oh Lord he how he pulls on his bow[00:00:58]
When you hear the tune[00:01:02]
Listen to the trombones croon[00:01:05]
It moans just like a sinner on revival day[00:01:12]
That melancholy strain[00:01:20]
That ever haunting refrain[00:01:23]
Is like a darkly morning in a song[00:01:25]
Here comes the very part[00:01:28]
Wraps spell around my heart[00:01:32]
It sets me wild to hear that loving tune again[00:01:39]
That melancholy strain that ever haunting refrain[00:02:14]
Is like a darkly morning in a song[00:02:18]
Here comes the very part[00:02:22]
Wraps spell around my heart[00:02:26]
It sets me wild to hear that loving tune again[00:02:32]
The Memphis blues[00:02:38]
