I hitchhiked up to Memphis, a young boy in my prime 
I thought that big old city would ease my Georgia mind 
After just one hour, I met a Southern girl 
She said they call me the Queen of Memphis 
And then she took me around the world 

[Chorus]
I saw stars dancing on the water 
I heard Elvis singing Blue Suede Shoes 
That old muddy river was my witness 
The night I fell in love with the queen of Memphis 
I woke up the next morning a prisoner of her charms 
She showed me things I'd never seen back there on that farm 
She set my soul on fire, she completed all my dreams 
A boy became a man that night in the arms of the Memphis Queen 

[Chorus]

Just like that old man river she keeps rolling through my mind 
And you know I won't forget her 'cause she was one of a kind 

[Chorus]
