Drink gallons of coffee
Sit and talk with me
Frozen in time
In Memphis Tennessee
Another blue story
Drags me to my knees
Oh Lord, deliver us
From the Memphis freeze

More left the building
In the King's new shoes
One step beyond
The old Memphis blues
Now I'm down there frozen
And I'm down on Beale Street
Won't you please, baby
Turn up the heat
The powerlines are all cut down
From the weight of all of the trees
In the Memphis freeze
The Memphis freeze

The console is silent
Air has all gone dead
In the obituaries
Not a word was said
How we stumbled in darkness
Now the blind man sees
When will it end
The Memphis freeze
The powerlines are all cut down
From the weight of all of the trees
In the Memphis freeze
The Memphis freeze
In the Memphis freeze
Memphis freeze
Alright now...
