[00:00.00] All The Way From Memphis - Mott The Hoople
[00:36.44] Forgot my six-string razor - hit the sky
[00:43.69] Half way to memphis 'fore I realised
[00:50.05] Well I rang the information - my axe was cold
[00:57.55] They said she rides the train to oreoles
[01:04.01] Now it's a mighty long way down the dusty trail
[01:07.09] And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
[01:10.31] 'N I look like a bum 'n I crawl like a snail
[01:16.30] All the way from memphis
[01:25.58] Well I got to oreoles y'know - it took a month
[01:32.72] And there was my guitar, electric junk
[01:39.05] Some spade said rock'n'rollers, you're all the same
[01:45.83] Man that's your instrument. I felt so ashamed
[01:52.63] Now it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
[01:56.20] Through the bradford cities and the oreoles
[01:59.57] 'N you look like a star but you're still on the dole
[02:04.99] All the way from memphis
[02:34.10] Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
[02:37.45] From the liverpool docks to the hollywood bowl
[02:41.08] 'N you climb up the mountains 'n you fall down the holes
[02:46.42] All the way from memphis
[02:47.90] Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
[02:51.11] As your name gets hot so your heart grows cold
[02:54.73] 'N you gotta stay young man, you can never be old
[03:00.36] All the way from memphis
[03:01.83] Yeah it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
[03:05.09] Through the bradford cities and the oreoles
[03:08.82] 'N you look like a star but you're really out on parole
[03:14.33] All the way from memphis
