Ian Hunter - All the Way from Memphis [Live] lyrics

Forgot my six-string razor, hit the sky Half way to memphis fore I realized Well I rang the information, my axe was cold They said she rides the train to oreoles Now its a mighty long way down the dusty trail And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails N I look like a bum n I crawl like a snail All the way from memphis Well I got to oreoles ya know, it took a month And there was my guitar, electric junk. Some spade said rock n' rollers, you're all the same. Man that's your instrument. I felt so ashamed. Now its a mighty long way down rock n' roll Through the Bradford cities and the oreoles N you look like a star but you're still on the dole All the way from memphis Yeah its a mighty long way down rock n' roll From the Liverpool docks to the Hollywood bowl N you climb up the mountains n you fall down the holes All the way from memphis Yeah its a mighty long way down rock n'roll As your name gets hot so your heart grows cold N you gotta stay young man, you can never be old All the way from memphis Yeah its a mighty long way down rock n' roll Through the Bradford cities and the oreoles N you look like a star but you're really out on parole! All the way from memphis
