Lyrics

She was young
Younger than the morning sun
With eyes of bright
Shining warm in the light

She had a hold
A hold on me constantly
Hey, hey,
She meant ev‘rything to me

She was a wild horse
Out in the wide
But in her way
She was like a southern child

She had a dream
To follow the stream
Hey, hey,
She told me her name was

Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
I followed her for just a while

She was a woman
More than anything
And she was free
As an eagle on steady wings

She had her pride
Knowing that she was right
No one to tell her:
“Do this! – Stop that!”

She was a clown
And she was a mother
A little girl
With the tension of a lover

She liked to rule
But she wouldn‘t ever listen
Hey, hey,
How am I missin’ my

Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
For she was gone one day

Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…

She‘s got no goal
‘Till the moment she‘ll move on
A solitair
‘Though she‘ll never be alone

I always knew
That one day she‘d let me down
Leaving me
With only lonelyness around

She‘s on her way
Travelling the river line
A rolling stone
Someone of a diff‘rent kind

She‘s got her dream
To follow the stream
Hey, hey,
You‘re in my dreams, my

Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
Lady Memphis
I wish you well my love

Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…
Lady Memphis…
