Memphis in Your Mind Lyrics

by 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
