Can't Go Back To Memphis
Low down dealin's in Memphis A card game in a back room I was lookin' at my last dollar Hopin' lady luck would come by soon
I played out on the east side Till I heard my reputation was in doubt It was starting to look like a bad ride It looked like time for gettin' out
They raised the betting limit The cards were falling fast I bet away my future, I already lost my past
Now I can't go back to Memphis I played out every game I can't go back to Memphis Everybody knows my name Too many people wanna even out the score And I can't go back to Memphis no more
I did my best to beat the system But the system put me back in my palace Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com They maintained a delicate balance Where no one got in nobody's face I was tryin' to make a dollar Just survivin' in the street I fought the gangs, I fought the law But they both had me beat
Now I can't go back to Memphis I played out every game I can't go back to Memphis Everybody knows my name Too many people wanna even out the score And I can't go back to Memphis no more
I can't go back to Memphis I can't go back to Memphis
No, no, I can't go back to Memphis No, no, no, no I can't go back to Memphis No, no, no, no Too many people wanna even out the score And I can't go back to Memphis no more
