Leroy Carr - Memphis Town lyrics

Went to the station to get me a train Gonna climb aboard and ride again Just climb aboard and ride around I might get off at Memphis Town Memphis Town, Memphis Town All trains goin' to Memphis Town Shovel in the coal, see the wheels go round Lord, everybody's goin' down to Memphis Town I said conductor, where are the trains all goin'? I want to go to see that girl of mine He answered me with a railroad frown All trains go to Memphis Town Memphis town, Memphis Town All trains goin' to Memphis Town Shovel in the coal, see the wheels go round Lord, everybody's goin' down to Memphis Town I said, what's doin' down old Memphis way? There's trains all goin' there today The trainman said, there's a Jubilee And Memphis's Town is the only place for me Memphis Town, Memphis Town All trains goin' to Memphis Town Shovel in the coal, see the wheels go round Lord, everybody's goin' down to Memphis Town I said to the station man, where's my train? He said, I never knowed you owned a train I said, you better answer or I'll smack you down He said all trains goin' to Memphis Town Memphis Town, Memphis Town All trains goin' to Memphis Town Shovel in the coal, see the wheels go round Lord, everybody's goin' down to Memphis Town Goodbye folks, I'm on my way See you all some other day Got my ticket, here's my train Goin' down to Memphis to see my girl again Memphis Town, Memphis Town All trains goin' to Memphis Town Shovel in the coal, see the wheels go round Lord, everybody's goln' down to Memphis Town Everybody's goin' down to Memphis Town
