Memphis Lives in Me Lyricsby David Bryan. From Memphis: A New Musical Memphis Lives in Me by David Bryan There's a town that I call home Where all the streets are paved with soul. Down on Beale, there's a honkey-tonk bar, Hear the wail of a blues guitar, Have a beer and drop a dime In a blindman's jar. The blues sing softly in the air, Like a Sunday morning prayer- Just one more drink and you'll see God everywhere. Like a sad old melody- Tears you up but sets you free- That's how Memphis lives in me. There comes a time when muddy waters run rough. There comes a point when a man has had enough. Like a friend who always stands by me, Memphis knows me, Memphis shows me How this life just has to be. I couldn't even try to run away, say goodbye. Here I was born, and here is where I'll die. Just a man from Tennessee can't be what I can't be All I know is Memphis lives in me. Whoa! There comes a time when muddy waters run rough. There comes a point when a man has had enough. Like a friend who always stands by me, Memphis knows me, Memphis shows me How this life just has to be I couldn't even try to run away, say goodbye Here I was born and here is where I'll die! Just a man from Tennessee, can't be what I can't be All I know is Memphis lives, all I know is Memphis gives, All I know is Memphis lives in me! [Thanks to Hana Cheplowitz for corrections]
