Memphis Lives In Me Lyrics - Bon Jovi

1 There's a town that I call home

2 Where all the streets are paved with soul

3 Down on Beale there's a honky-tonk bar

4 So hear the wail of a blues guitar

5 Have a beer and drop a dime in the blind man's jar

6 The blues sing softly in the air like a Sunday morning prayer

7 Just one more drink and you'll see God everywhere

8 Like a sad old melody that cheers you up, it sets you free

9 That's how Memphis lives in me

10 There comes a time when muddy waters run rough

11 There comes a point when a man has had enough

12 Like a friend that always stands by me

13 Memphis knows me

14 Never showed me

15 How did life just had to be

16 I couldn't even try to run away, say goodbye

17 Here I was born and here is where I'll die

18 I'm just a man from Tennessee

19 I can't be what I can't be

20 All I know is Memphis lives in me

21 I said I'm just a man from Tennessee

22 Can't be what I can't be

23 All I know is Memphis lives

24 All I know is Memphis gives
