Goin' Down To Memphis - John Martyn

Now when I woke up this morning

My wife she drove me from my door

When I woke up this morning

Wife she drove me from my door

Said go away sweet daddy

I don’t need you no more

I turned around, mama

Honey, what’s the matter now?

Won’t you turn around mama

Won’t you tell me, what’s the matter now

And I know you don’t love me

Why don’t you dig me anyhow

Hey, hey, mama

Won’t you try me back this one last time?

Please, please, mama

Won’t you try me back this one last time

And if I don’t do this

You might send me back on down the line

Now mama

Might never see my face again

Now hey, hey, mama

You might never see my face again

Goin' way down south to Memphis

Gonna catch myself a southbound train
