Confederate Railroad - Queen of Memphis Lyrics

Artist: Confederate Railroad

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Dave Gibson, Kathy Louvin

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

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

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

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

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 am still in love with the Queen of Memphis
