1
I got something to say little girl
2
You might not like my style
3
But we've been hanging around this town
4
Just a little too long a while
5
You say you're gonna get your act together
6
Gonna take it out on the road
7
But if I don't get outta here pretty soon
8
My head's going to explode
9
Sure I like country music
10
I like mandolins
11
But right now I need a telecaster
12
Through a Vibrolux turned up to ten
13
CHORUS:
14
Lets go to Memphis in the meantime baby
15
Memphis in the meantime girl
16
I need a little shot of that rhythm baby
17
Mixed up with these country blues
18
I wanna trade in these ol' cowboy boots
19
For some fine italian shoes
20
Forget the mousse and the hairspray, sugar
21
We don't need none of that
22
Just a little dab'll do ya girl
23
Underneath a pork pie hat
24
Until hell freezes over
25
Maybe you can wait that long
26
But I don't think Ronnie Milsap's gonna ever
27
Record this song

CHORUS TWICE

BRIDGE:
30
Maybe there's nothin' happenin' there
31
Maybe there's somethin' in the air
32
Before our upper lips get stiff
33
Maybe we need us a big ol' whiff
34
If we could just get off-a that beat little girl
35
Maybe we could find the groove
36
At least we can get ourselves a decent meal
37
Down at the Rendez-vous
38
'Cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chord
39
Girl, it's gonna do me in
40
I need to hear some trumpet and saxophone
41
You know sound as sweet as sin
42
And after we get good and greasy
43
Baby we can come back home
44
Put the cowhorns back on the cadillac
45
And change the message on the Code-a-Phone
46
But...
47
