Spent most all my life playin' music from town to town You spent almost half of yours hopin' that someday I'd settle down And heaven only knows all the hell I musta put you through, put you through I'm just two cigarettes out of Memphis, but I'm a million miles from you Chorus Two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you I called to say I was comin' home and you told me I had no home to come home to And I can't stop this pain no more than I can stop this rain I'm drivin' through, drivin' through I'm just two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you I know it must have been hard on you livin' someone elses dreams
Specially when that dream ain't never comin' true, or so it seems And I can't say I blame you fo rfinally givin' up and saying that we're through, we're all through Now I'm just two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you Chorus Two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you I called to say I was comin' home and you told me I had no home to come home to And I can't stop this pain no more than I can stop this rain I'm drivin' through, drivin' through I'm just two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you (tag) Lord I'm just two cigarettes out of Memphis but I'm a million miles from you
