Lyrics

[00:09.79] Long distance, information
[00:12.16] Give me Memphis, Tennessee
[00:14.38] Trying to find the party
[00:16.85] Trying to get in touch with me
[00:19.24] She would not leave her number
[00:21.85] But I know who placed the call
[00:24.12] The phone-boy took the message
[00:26.91] And he wrote it on the wall
[00:28.94]
[00:33.35] Help me, information
[00:35.18] Get in touch with my Marie
[00:37.76] She's the only one who'd phone me here
[00:40.43] From Memphis, Tennessee
[00:42.32] Her home is on the south side
[00:44.77] Just beyond the ridge
[00:47.56] Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge
[00:52.04]
[00:56.45] Help me, information
[00:58.39] More than that I cannot add
[01:00.52] Only that I miss her
[01:03.34] And all the fun we had
[01:05.38] We were pulled apart, because
[01:08.66] Her mom would not agree
[01:10.56] Help me get in touch with her
[01:13.32] In Memphis, Tennessee
[01:15.13]
[01:45.17] The last time that I saw Marie
[01:47.69] She was waving me goodbye
[01:49.67] With hurry-home drops on her cheek
[01:52.58] That trickeled from her eye
[01:54.45] Marie is only six years old
[01:57.59] Information, please
[01:59.57] Help me get in touch with her
[02:02.43] In Memphis, Tennessee
[02:04.14]
