lirik lagu john hiatt – memphis in the meantime
i got something to say little girl
you might not like my style
but we’ve been hanging around this town
just a little too long a while
you say you’re gonna get your act together
gonna take it out on the road
but if i don’t get outta here pretty soon
my head’s going to explode
sure i like country music
i like mandolins
but right now i need a telecaster
through a vibro-lux turned up to ten
chorus:
lets go to memphis in the meantime baby
memphis in the meantime girl
i need a little shot of that rhythm baby
mixed up with these country blues
i wanna trade in these ol country boots
for some fine italian shoes
forget the mousse and the hairspray sugar
we don’t need none of that
just a little dab’ll do ya girl
underneath a pork pie hat
until h-ll freezes over
maybe you can wait that long
but i don’t think ronnie milsap’s gonna ever
record this song
chorus twice
bridge:
maybe there’s nothin’ happenin’ there
maybe there’s somethin’ in the air
before our upper lips get stiff
maybe we need us a big ol whiff
if we could just get off-a that beat little girl
maybe we could find the groove
at least we can get a decent meal
down at the rendez-vous
’cause one more heartfelt steel guitar chord
girl, it’s gonna do me in
i need to hear some trumpet and saxophone
you know sound as sweet as sin
and after we get good and greasy
baby we can come back home
put the cowh-rns back on the cadillac
and change the message on the cord-a-phone
but…
chorus
