Way back Friday wasn't my day I hung my boots on the factory door I found a diesel, hit it my way I made my bed here on the floor Where the station never closes Only people here shut down I thought I'd never live to see the day I like the view to fade away And out of the dark night I see There's a light on in Memphis There's a party there tonight Someone left the light on in Memphis Oh, Elvis must be coming home tonight I got to know you I've got to own you I wanna help you anyway I can I know you're out there hard that somewhere Your mystery train keeps rolling on till I See the light on in Memphis I keep your candle burning bright Someone left the light on in Memphis Oh, Elvis must be coming home tonight Well I'm not one for complaining Cause you're not answering my mail I thought I'd never live to see the day
