Memphis In Your Mind Lyrics - Ringo Starr

A cat has nine lives 

But man you don't live twice 

You can play for a price 

WITH YOUR GRANDADDY'S dice 

If you wanna be the king 

You gotta go to Memphis in your mind 

It's a bad point of view 

If THAT GLOOM got through to you 

Well I kissed Peggy Sue 

And you could have TOO 

Ain't that a shame 

You never went to Memphis in your mind

There's no place cooler 

When you got your Bop-A-Lula on 

Slip into your blue suede shoes 

We're dancing' till the break of dawn 

Sun records will be playing 

You'll know every word they're sayings true 

Heartbreak Hotel is taking reservations 

There's a room for you 

You can go to any town 

Get up but not get down 

If you wanna hear that rockin' sound 

You go to Memphis in your mind 

You can have two left feet 

And you can still keep the beat 

If you're sixteen and sweet 

Or you can't leave your seat

If you wanna be the king 

You gotta go to Memphis in your mind 

We CAN'T all be king 

SO GO TO MEMPHIS IN YOUR MIND
