Edit for headphones.
Six track edit, Februari 23, 2013.
First recorded on the BBC radio September 23, 1963, not released on any official Rolling Stones album. Never performed on stage, I guess, so I made this video to help you imagine they did...
There's no video footage of this song, so I edited an existing one.
Guitars: Brian Jones, Keith Richards. Vocals: Mick Jagger. Bass: Bill Wyman. Drums: Charlie Watts. Piano: Ian Stewart.
Memphis Tennessee
(Chuck Berry)
Long distance in formation, give me Memphis Tennessee
Help me find the party trying to get in touch with me
She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call
'Cause the phoneboy took the message and he wrote it on the wall
Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie
She's the only one who'd phone me here from Memphis Tennessee
Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge
Just a half a mile from the Mississippi Bridge
guitar solo
Help me, information, more than that I cannot add
Only that I miss her and all the fun we had
But we were pulled apart because her mamma did not agree
she tore apart a happy home in Memphis Tennessee
Well last time I saw Marie she's waving me good-bye
With hurry home drops on her cheek that trickled from her eye
Marie is only six years old, information please,
Try to put me through to her in Memphis Tennessee,
O try to get a number back in Memphis Tennessee.
