Mister, you can take me into Little Rock
  I'll buy the coffee and I'll fill your truck
  I'll listen all night if you wanna talk
  Just don't mention Memphis
    We can talk about your family
  Politics and music and philosophy
  Any ol' subject's all right with me
  Just don't mention Memphis
    Or blue eyes
  And light brown hair
  An angel wavin' to me
  From the top of the stairs
  The hardest thing I did
  Was leave her standing there
  So don't mention Memphis
    Pass me the thermos and I'll fill your cup
  We'll make Texas with a little luck
  And I'm hanging with you 'til the sun comes up
  So don't mention Memphis
    Or blue eyes
  And light brown hair
  An angel wavin' to me
  From the top of the stairs
  The hardest thing I did
  Was leave her standing there
  So don't mention Memphis
