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

My uncle took the message

And he wrote it on the wall

Help me information

To get in touch with my Marie

She's the only one who'd phone Me here

From Memphis Tennessee

Her home is on the Southside

High upon a ridge

Just a half a mile from

The Mississippi bridge

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

Tore apart our happy home

In Memphis Tennessee

The last time I saw Marie

She was waving me goodbye

With hurry home drops on her cheek

That trickled from her eye

Marie is only si years old

Information please

Try to put me through to her

In Memphis Tennessee
