| 作词 : Cash, Dew, Lomax | |
| Bring a drink of water Leroy | |
| Bring a drink of water, no | |
| If I could get to the mercy man | |
| He'd give me some I know | |
| I got a gal in Vicksburg | |
| Bertha is her name | |
| Wish I's tied to Bertha | |
| Instead of this ball and chain | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, that's right Lord, yeah | |
| A dude took all my money | |
| Wouldn't let me see the cards | |
| I owe the boss about a hundred years | |
| For sleepin' in his backyard | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, yeah Memphis | |
| Yeah I'm goin' to Memphis | |
| Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed | |
| But when that levee's through and I am too | |
| Let the honky tonk roll on | |
| Come mornin' I'll be gone | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, yeah Memphis | |
| I never been to Chicago | |
| But it must be a mighty fine place, that's right | |
| I couldn't get past Tennessee | |
| With Mississippi all over my face | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, that's right Lord, Memphis | |
| Well, the freezin' ground at night | |
| Is my own foldin' bed | |
| Pork salad is my bread and meat | |
| And it will be till I'm dead | |
| Well, I brought me a little water | |
| In a Mr. Prince Albert can | |
| But the boss man caught me drinkin' it | |
| And I believe, he broke my hand | |
| They all call me crazy for sassin' Mr. Scott | |
| My brother was killed for a deed I did | |
| But I dis remember what, yeah | |
| Well another boy is down | |
| The shovel burned him out | |
| Let me stand on his body | |
| To see what the shoutin's about | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, yeah I'm goin' to Memphis | |
| Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed | |
| But when that levee's through and I am too | |
| Let the honky tonk roll on | |
| Come mornin' I'll be gone | |
| I'm goin' to Memphis, yeah Memphis |
