Lookin' back on everything And all the things that stay I can count on memories Cuz they don't go away Good times were hard to hold Until she came along She moves me like a Memphis soul song
I'm not always there I know But she don't mind at all As pretty as a picture that hangs on my own wall She's like Mississippi
When the sun comes up at dawn She moves me like a Memphis soul song
With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone She moves me like a Memphis soul song She moves me like a Memphis soul song
She don't care what the game is She's always down to play My world without her seems a million miles away She don't have to worry I know where I belong She moves me like a Memphis soul song
I've been dealt some aces And I've played them all the same But she's the only one that keeps me in the game No fame or fortune could ever keep me gone She moves me like a Memphis soul song
With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone She moves me like a Memphis soul song She moves me like a Memphis soul song
[BRIDGE] There's a magic down in Memphis That never seems to fade Even now them voices carry Like a lonely serenade It's the memories that still and always will be on my mind They move me every time
She see's the good in everything there is to see Sometimes I wonder what she ever see's in me I'm not always right you know But she's never led me wrong She moves me like a Memphis soul song
In all my travels I've never found a way To find the words that say the things I'd like to say I've sang some melodies but she's my favorite one She moves me like a Memphis soul song With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right
She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone She moves me like a Memphis soul song
