Juwana Jenkins – Last Night In Memphis lyrics

Down where 61
Meets 49
Mr. Johnson’s still there
Had a real good time

At Ground Zero
Before we had to go
See Janiva
Put on a show

Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin’ but the blues

Professor on the sax
A band by Donnie Mack
The drummer was late
When they got out of the gate

Show started slow
‘Til Charlie started to blow
He tooted and trilled
‘Til the crowd felt a thrill

Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin but the blues

If you wanna go
Where they put on a show
Then I’ll take you there
Where the crowd calls out
More! More! More!

You wanna thrill
Then it’s off to Wild Bill’s
Everybody’s there
With their hands in the air

If you wanna thrill
Then it’s off to Wild Bill’s
Everybody’s there
With their hands in the air

Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin’ but the blues
We walked through door
A girl came from the floor
Hands around Tom's neck
Wantin’ more than just a peck

She yelled let's dance
If he'd been alone
She'd be moanin’ ‘n’ groanin’
Til the early morn’

Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin’ but the blues
Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin’ but the blues
Last night in Memphis
And I ain’t got nothin’ but the blues
