Merle Haggard – Mama I've Got to Go to Memphis lyrics
Mama did she leave to go to Memphis
Are you taking care care of Brady while she's gone
And mama is she down there drown the memories
Surely she won't be in Memphis very long
Mama since I left her I've been crazy
I bet she thinks my love for her is gone
I stopped by because I thought she'd be here waiting
Mama Memphis can't be very far
She'll be back to get the baby
Could I stay with little Brady while she's gone
She'll be back to get the baby
Surely she won't stay in Memphis very long

She'll be back to get the baby\
