Long distance information, give me Memphis, Tennessee

Help me find the party, tried to get in touch with me

She could not leave her number, but I know the place to call

'Cause my uncle took the message and he wrote it on the wall

Long distance information, get in touch with my Marie

Her home is on the south side, high up on a ridge

Last time I saw Marie, she was waving me goodbye

Hurry home, drops on a cheek, a trickle from her little eye

We were torn apart because her daddy did not agree

Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee
