TRISHA YEARWOOD LYRICS - Nothin' 'Bout Memphis

"Nothin' 'Bout Memphis"



Can't believe I'm back here again

Feels like a lifetime and a thousand miles since then

It was just one summer night

But the kind of night you never can forget

And I'm here with my baby and we're driving downtown

He thinks I've never been here, wants to show me around



But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

How could he ever know this was our town?

All he sees is that big old muddy river and the ghost of Elvis

But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis



Don't wanna look him in the eye

Scared he might see what I remember of that night

We were dancing on the water

We were singing hallelujah to the stars

And I know that it would hurt him, if he could see my past

He thinks he's the only one who's touched me like that



But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

How could he ever know this was our town?

All he sees is that big old muddy river and the ghost of Elvis

But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis



Sweet, sweet Memphis, all the good times we had

Ain't no harm in looking back, no, no, no



He don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

How could he ever know this was our town?

All he sees is that muddy Mississippi and the ghost of Elvis

But he don't know nothin' 'bout Memphis

Sweet, sweet Memphis
