Long distance information
Give me Memphis, Tennessee
Help me find the party
Trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number
But I know who placed the call
'Cause my uncle took the message
And he wrote it on the wall
Yeah, help me, information
Get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me
Here from Memphis, Tennessee
Her home is on the south side
High up on that ridge
Just a half a mile from that Mississippi bridge
Yeah, help me, information
More than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her
And all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart
'Cause her mom did not agree
And tore apart our happy home
Down in Memphis, Tennessee
ย
Yeah, help me, information
More than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her
And all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart
Because her mama did not agree
And tore apart our happy home
Down in Memphis, Tennessee
ย
Oh, and last time I saw Marie
She was waving me goodbye
With hurry home drops on her cheeks
That trickled from her eye
Oh, Marie is only six years old
Information, oh please
Try to put me through to my baby
Down in Memphis, Tennessee
Come on
Memphis, Tennessee, Marie
