Bette Midler
Midnight in Memphis
It's midnight in Memphis
And all the boys are out tonight
Oh, midnight in Memphis
But my true love is not in sight
The neon's glowing
But I just don't see the light

I'm following my footsteps
Trying to find myself a friend
Oh, baby! Following my footsteps
Trying to see where they might end
I'm tryin' to break these blues
But I can't even get them to bend

Oh, midnight in Memphis
Well, ya take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day

Burnin' out on Beale Street
Can you hear that engine roar?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Burnin' out on Beale Street
There's a girl in every door
Yeah, you know it don't matter what you got
They're asking me for more
Play it for me one time, boys
I heard the river risin'
Risin' up over my head
Yeah, heard the river risin'
And this is what it said:
"I don't need no live ones;
I just take care of the dead."

Oh, midnight in Memphis
Take me, take me away
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day

Whoa, oh, oh, oh, midnight in Memphis
Midnight in Memphis
Midnight in Memphis
It's a long, long time
Before the day
Before the day
