This Far From Memphis

She said goodbye in Tallahassee

I just crawled in my truck

Set my mind on Miami

And my sights on better luck

Ain't a man deserves to hurt like this

It's a lonely place, it sure is

Guess I never really knew the blues

Ever got this far from Memphis

All the night life and the beaches

Couldn't soothe my achin' soul

And how I ended up in Key West

God and the liquor only know

Now I've run out of road

So I guess my only hope

Is to trade this truck for a boat

Ever got this far from Memphis

Man, I'm a long ways from Memphis
