Long distance

information 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 my uncle

took the message

and he wrote it

on the wall

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 mom

did not agree

And tore apart

our happy home

in Memphis Tennessee

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

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
