HEY MEMPHIS (Doc Pomas - Mort Shuman) LAVERN BAKER (ATLANTIC 2119, 1961) [Chorus] Hey Memphis won't you, hey Memphis won't you Hey Memphis won't you kiss me once or twice Make me feel so nice, I'd never run Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister does (Hey Memphis, I won't do what my big sister does) Well, you dated my big sister You took her to a show You went for some candy Along came Jim Dandy And they snuck right out of the door [Chorus] Everytime you saw my sister She had somebody new She's mean and she's evil Like that little ol' boll weevil But I won't so the same to you [Chorus] Well, you used to pull my pigtails And pinch my turned-up nose But I've been a-growing And baby, it's been showing From my head down to my toes [Chorus] Also recorded as "Little Sister" by Elvis Presley (RCA 47-7908, 1961) |
