Stand down the blacktop at a cold dark night, boy Pitch black skies there ain't a star in sight But I'm looking for a change I'm passing through Memphis in the rain Whitewashed buildings and old overgrown yards I've got one hand on the wheel, I've got one on my heart Looking for a girl without a name I'm passing through Memphis in the rain But no matter what I do, Lord, I can't stop Gotta keep that hammer to the floor baby Until I'm clear out of Arkansas mama 'Cause I know what they can do to me Lord and I won't let them make a fool out of me Things are starting to get strange Passing through Memphis in the rain Sometimes a man's just gotta know when to go He's gotta earn himself a keepin' He's gotta know when he's been beat So I called a cousin down in Houston He said 'come on down boy, we've got work for you to be doing' I'm looking for a change Passing through Memphis in the rain Yeah things are startin' to get strange I'm passing through Memphis in the rain Oh yeah From Letras Mania
