From the recording The Circle City Bandit
Lyrics
I walked two thousand miles to Memphis
To find Elvis was already dead
And there ain't nothing in sight
That I can't leave behind
Sometimes you just can't get ahead
And the road signs all point you the same way
If you're weary and tired from the road
And if you're trying to get back what you've already had
Just go where you've already gone
And I'm tired of living this road life
But Memphis ain't nothing like home
And I'll keep rambling on
Till the day is gone
Or I find me a place that I belong
And the highway lights bring me some comfort
But I know that they blind me most times
And I keep on driving
Despite cries from my eyelids
To pull over and rest for a while
And I'm tired of living this road life
But Memphis ain't nothing like home
And I'll keep rambling on
Till the day is gone
Or I find me a place that I belong
And I walk two thousand miles to Memphis
To find Elvis was already dead
