Tied up, gagged and a candle
In a trailer RV
And that purple dressed lady
Is dripping hot wax on me
Down the Mississippi
The girl she was so pretty
And even though she whipped me
I'm stuck in Memphis city
And now it's such a pity
That I won't come back home
Now I'm lost on my own
She put a spell on my bone
She drove it under my skin
Worst place that I've ever been
Sign on the wall says, "Volunteer State"
Dead bird on the floor, dog food in a cage
Man, lawdy lawd, I'm so far away from home
T'was a diner in Memphis
She said her name was Elaine
And the weather forecast
Said'll be thunder and rain
Two golden teeth and as rad as heck
Tight as the rope around a guilty man's neck
She grabbed my hand and said let's get goin astray
And now I'm lost on my own
She put a spell on my bone
She drove it under my skin
Worst place that I've ever been
Sign on the wall says, "Volunteer State"
Dead bird on the floor, dog food in a cage
Man, lawdy lawd, I'm so far away from home
ย
Now my temperature's sinking
I guess my race it is gone
Met my fate and I'm thinking
About the deeds that I've done
She grabbed my mind cut a slice of me
Kept me alive but I wish that she
Cut through my throat and let me get going back home
But I'm lost on my own
She put a spell on my bone
She drove it under my skin
Worst place that I've ever been
Down the Mississippi
The girl she was so pretty
And even though she hit me
I'm stuck in Memphis city
And now it's such a pity
That I won't come back home
Down the Mississippi
The girl she was so pretty
And even though she hit me
I'm stuck in Memphis city
And now it's such a pity
That I won't come back home
