Merle Haggard
Mama I’ve Got to Go to Memphis
[Verse]
Mama, did she leave to go to Memphis?
Are you taking care of Brady while she's gone?
And Mama, is she down there drowned in memories?
Surely she won't be in Memphis very long

[Verse]
Mama, since I left her, I've been crazy
I bet she thinks my love for her is gone
I stopped by because I thought she'd be here waiting
Mama, Memphis can't be very far

[Chorus]
She'll be back to get the baby
Could I stay with little Brady while she's gone?
She'll be back to get the baby
Surely she won't stay in Memphis very long

[Chorus]
She'll be back to get the baby
Could I stay with little Brady while she's gone?
She'll be back to get the baby
Surely she won't stay in Memphis very long
