That's How I Got to Memphis

(Tom T. Hall)If you love somebody enough

You'll follow wherever they go

That's how I got to Memphis

That's how I got to Memphis

If you love somebody enough

You'll go where your heart wants to go

That's how I got to Memphis

That's how I got to MemphisI know if you've seen him

You'd tell me cause you're my friend

I've got to find him

And find out the trouble he's in

And if you tell me he's not here

You can follow the trail of my tears

That's how I got to Memphis

That's how I got to MemphisHe'd get mad and he used to say

He'd go back and find her someday

That's how I got to Memphis

That's how I got to Memphis

I haven't eaten a bite

Or slept for three days and nights

That's how I got to Memphis

That's how I got to Memphis
