I'd run all the way to Memphis
Cross the Tennessee line with you on my mind, it's true
All the way to Memphis
Swim the Mississippi so you would see that I love you
I'd run all the way to Memphis
Just for you

If I couldn't buy a ticket on that train
Or a first class seat, flying on that plane
If there was no way to see my baby, I'd do
Anything to get to you

I'd run all the way to Memphis
Cross the Tennessee line with you on my mind, it's true
I'd run all the way to Memphis
Swim the Mississippi so you would see that I love you
I'd run all the way to Memphis
Just for you

Even if the road goes out and the bridge is down
And the mountains rise up from the ground, yeah

Yeah, I'd run all the way to Memphis
Cross the Tennessee line
with you on my mind, it's true, yeah
All the way to Memphis
Swim the Mississippi so you would see that I love you
All the way to Memphis
Just for you
I'd run all the way to Memphis
Just for you
