Long Distance Information,
give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party
that try to get in touch with me
They would not leave a number,
but I know the place to call,
Cause my uncle took a message,
and he wrote it on the wall
Long Distance Information,
get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one
who'd phone me here
from Memphis, Tennessee
Her home is on the south side,
high up on a ridge,
Just a half a mile
from the Mississippi Bridge
Long Distance Information,
more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her
and all the fun we had
But we were torn apart
because her Mom did not agree,
And tore apart our happy home
in Memphis, Tennessee
Now, last time I saw Marie,
she was waving me goodbye,
With "hurry home"
drops on her cheeks that
trickled from her eyes
Marie is only years old
Information, please,
Try to put me through to her
in Memphis, Tennessee...[start]../song/9/9140.MID[stop]
