Memphis Pearl Lyrics

	作词 : Rall, Williams
	Back in Memphis she was a pearl
	She was everyone's favorite girl
	Now her eyes have a vacant stare
	What she wouldn't give to be livin' back there
	She married a man when she left home
	She wanted someone she could call her own
	He was good to her when he wasn't drunk
	He'd hold her and tell her how pretty she looked
	Back in Memphis where she grew up
	The life she knew was just not enough
	Back in Memphis when she was a girl
	She thought one day she'd own the world
	She'd look at the TV and magazines
	And she'd believe all the pictures she'd seen
	She'd be wearin' silk and perfume so sweet
	But those things don't mean much out here on the street
	Back in Memphis she had fun
	Goin' around, tellin' everyone
	She was gonna buy dresses that zip up the side
	And wear red lipstick, have a nice car to drive
	She bounces her baby on her knee
	Sayin' maybe today we'll get lucky, you'll see
	I promise it won't always be like this
	Come here, sugar, give Mamma a kiss
	Back in Memphis another time
	Didn't look like things would turn out fine
	Back in Memphis when she was a girl
	She thought one day she'd own the world
	Back in Memphis she was a pearl
