Can't Go Back To Memphis



Stray Cats - Can't Go Back To Memphis - Текст песни

Low down dealin' in Memphis a card game in a back room 
I was lookin' at my last dollar hopin' lady luck would come by soon 
They raised the betting limit the cards were flying fast 
I bet away my future I'd already lost my past 

I can't go back to Memphis 
I can't go back to Memphis - I played out every game 
Can't go back to Memphis 
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 hung out on the east side I heard my reputation was in doubt 
It was starting to look like a bad ride 
It looked like time for gettin' out 
I sent the man a message said I was gonna split 
He sent a message back that said I don't let nobody quit 

I can't go back to Memphis 
I can't go back to Memphis - I played out every game 
Can't go back to Memphis 
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 tried my best to beat the system but the system put me back in my place 
They maintained a delicate balance where no one got in nobody's face 
I tried to make a dollar just surviving in the streets 
I fought the gangs, I fought the law but they both had me beat 

I can't go back to Memphis 
I can't go back to Memphis - I played out every game 
I can't go back to Memphis 
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 

Get outta town
