Lookin' back on everything

And all the things that stay

I can count on memories

Cuz they don't go away

Good times were hard to hold

Until she came along

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



I'm not always there I know

But she don't mind at all

As pretty as a picture that hangs on my own wall

She's like Mississippi



When the sun comes up at dawn

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right

She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights

Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone

She moves me like a Memphis soul song

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



She don't care what the game is

She's always down to play

My world without her seems a million miles away

She don't have to worry

I know where I belong

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



I've been dealt some aces

And I've played them all the same

But she's the only one that keeps me in the game

No fame or fortune could ever keep me gone

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right

She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights

Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone

She moves me like a Memphis soul song

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



[BRIDGE]

There's a magic down in Memphis

That never seems to fade

Even now them voices carry

Like a lonely serenade

It's the memories that still and always will be on my mind

They move me every time



She see's the good in everything there is to see

Sometimes I wonder what she ever see's in me

I'm not always right you know

But she's never led me wrong

She moves me like a Memphis soul song



In all my travels I've never found a way

To find the words that say the things I'd like to say

I've sang some melodies but she's my favorite one

She moves me like a Memphis soul song

With an angel on my lefty side and the devil on my right



She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights

Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone

She moves me like a Memphis soul song

She moves me like a Memphis soul song
