Verse 1
E
I got something to say, little girl
A
You might not like my style
But we've been hanging around this town
Just a little too long a while
A
You say you're gonna get your act together
Gonna take it out on the road
E
But if I don't get outta here pretty soon
My head's going to explode
Pre-chorus 1
B
Sure, I like country music and I like mandolins
A
But right now I need a Telecaster
D
Through a Vibrolux turned up to ten
Chorus 1
E
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Memphis in the meantime, girl
Verse 2
E
I need a little shot of that rhythm, baby
Mixed up with these country blues
I want to trade in these ol' cowboy boots
For some fine Italian shoes
A
Forget the mousse and the hairspray, sugar
We don't need none of that
E
Oh, a little dab'll do ya, girl
Underneath a pork pie hat
Pre-chorus 2
A
Until hell freezes over
Maybe you can wait that long
A
But I don't think Ronnie Milsap's
D
gonna ever record this song
Chorus 2
E
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, girl
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Bridge 1
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, girl
A
Maybe there's nothin' happenin' there
E
Maybe there's somethin' in the air
A
Before our upper lips get stiff
E
B
Maybe we need us a big ol' whiff
Verse 3
E
If we could just get off-a that beat, little girl
A
Maybe we could find the groove
At least we can get ourselves a decent meal
Down at the Rendez-vous
A
'Cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chord
Girl, that's gonna do me in
E
I need to hear some trumpet and saxophone
You know sound as sweet as sin
Pre-chorus 3
B
And after we get good and greasy
Baby, we can come on home
A
Put the cowhorns back on the Cadillac
And change the message
on the cord-a-phone
Chorus 3
E
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, girl
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, baby
Let's go to Memphis in the meantime, girl
