All The Way From Memohis

All The Way From Memphis - Mott The Hoople
Forgot my six-string razor - hit the sky
Half way to memphis fore I realised
Well I rang the information - my axe was cold
They said she rides the train to oreoles
Now its a mighty long way down the dusty trail
And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
N I look like a bum n I crawl like a snail
All the way from memphis
Well I got to oreoles yknow - it took a month
And there was my guitar, electric junk
Some spade said rocknrollers, youre all the same
Man thats your instrument. I felt so ashamed
Now its a mighty long way down rocknroll
Through the bradford cities and the oreoles
N you look like a star but youre still on the dole
All the way from memphis
Yeah its a mighty long way down rocknroll
From the liverpool docks to the hollywood bowl
N you climb up the mountains n you fall down the holes
All the way from memphis
Yeah its a mighty long way down rocknroll
As your name gets hot so your heart grows cold
N you gotta stay young man, you can never be old
All the way from memphis
Yeah its a mighty long way down rocknroll
Through the bradford cities and the oreoles
N you look like a star but youre really out on parole
All the way from memphis
