Lookin' back on everything and all the things that stay
I can count on memories 'cuz they don't go away
Good times were hard to hold until she came along
She moves me like a Memphis soul songI'm not always there I know but she don't mind at all
As pretty as a picture that hangs on my own wall
She's like Mississippi when the sun comes up at dawn
She moves me like a Memphis soul songWith an angel on my left side and the devil on my right
She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights
Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
She moves me like a Memphis soul songShe don't care what the game is, she's always down to play
My world without her seems a million miles away
She don't have to worry, I know where I belong
She moves me like a Memphis soul songI've been dealt some aces and I've played them all the same
But she's the only one that keeps me in the game
No fame or fortune could ever keep me gone
She moves me like a Memphis soul songWith an angel on my left side and the devil on my right
She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights
Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone
She moves me like a Memphis soul songThere's a magic down in Memphis that never seems to fade
Even now them voices carry like a lonely serenade
It's the memories that still and always will be on my mind
They move me every timeShe sees the good in everything there is to see
Sometimes I wonder what she ever see's in me
I'm not always right you know but she's never led me wrong
She moves me like a Memphis soul songIn all my travels I've never found a way
To find the words that say the things I'd like to say
I've sang some melodies but she's my favorite one
She moves me like a Memphis soul songWith an angel on my left side and the devil on my right
She's the one who saves me from them dark unholy nights
Of all the ones who've left me it's a wonder she's not gone
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
She moves me like a Memphis soul song
