Вступление
[Intro]
[Verse]
Looking at you through a misty moonlight
Katydid sing like a symphony
Porch swing swaying like a Tennessee lullaby
Melody blowing through the willow tree
[Pre Chorus]
What was I s'posed to do
Standing there lookin’ at you?
lonely boy far from home
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
(x2)
But it sure felt right
[Verse]
Read about you in a Faulkner novel
Met you once in a Williams' play
Heard about you in a country love song
Summer night beauty took my breath away
[Pre Chorus]
What was I s'posed to do
Standing there lookin’ at you?
Lonely boy far from home
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
[Instrumental]

(let ring)
[Verse]
Every night now since I been back home
I lie awake drifting in my memory
Think about you on your mama's front porch swing
Talking that way, so soft to me
[Pre Chorus]
What was I s'posed to do
Standing there lookin‘ at you?
Lonely boy far from home
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
[Chorus]
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
[Bridge]
(x2)
Oh You know it sure felt right
(x2)
Oh Maybe it was Memphis
(x2)
Maybe it was Memphis
(x2)
Maybe it was Memphis
[Outro]
(x2)
Maybe it was Memphis
(x2)
But it sure felt right
(x2)
Maybe it was Memphis
(x2)
But it sure felt right
