Hey, Memphis

Hey Memphis - LaVern Baker

Hey Memphis won't you Hey Memphis won't you

Hey Memphis won't you kiss me once or twice

Make me feel so nice I'd never run

Hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done

Well you dated my big sister

You took her to a show

You went for some candy along came Jim Dandy

And they snuck right out of the door

Hey Memphis won't you Hey Memphis won't you

Hey Memphis won't you kiss me once or twice

Make me feel so nice I'd never run

Hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done

Every time you saw my sister

She had somebody new

She's mean and she's evil like that little ol' boll weevil

But I won't do the same to you

Hey Memphis won't you Hey Memphis won't you

Hey Memphis won't you kiss me once or twice

Make me feel so nice I'd never run

Hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done

Well you used to pull my pigtails

And punch my turned-up nose

But I've been a-growing and baby it's been showing

From my head down to my toes

Hey Memphis won't you Hey Memphis won't you

Hey Memphis won't you kiss me once or twice

And make me feel so nice I'd never run

Whoa hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done

Hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done

Ah hey Memphis I won't do what my big sister done
