Long distance information give me Memphis Tennessee

Help me find the party try 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

So help me operator get in touch with my Marie

She's the only one who'd call me here from Memphis Tennessee

Her home is on the southside high up on a ridge

Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge

The last time I saw Marie she was a waving me goodbye

With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickle from her eyes

But we were torn apart because her mom did not agree

And tore apart our happy home in Memphis Tennessee

So help me information more than that I cannot add

Only that I miss her so and all the fun we had

Marie is only six years old so information please

Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee

So try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee
