I drove all the way from Storyville on a midnight Memphis run
From Bourbon Street to Beale Street
straight up Highway 61
I was tuned in on radio maybe
ten miles out of town
When I heard the rose of Memphis boys
that's when I left the ground

Till I can say I got the rose of
Memphis coming home with me
She wrapped her song around my
heart just like the Kudzu vine
That keeps on growing after dark
straight up some lonesome pine
I've got to find that woman now
cause my life ain't complete
Man there ain't nobody out there
got the rose of Memphis beat

She was born down by the river

Man they can't nobody touch her
