"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
[Chorus:] 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 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 Now I've run out of road So I guess my only hope Is to trade this truck for a boat 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 Ever got this far from Memphis Man, I'm a long ways from Memphis
