Low down dealin's in MemphisA card game in a back roomI was lookin' at my last dollarHopin' lady luck would come by soonI played out on the east sideTill I heard my reputation was in doubtIt was starting to look like a bad rideIt looked like time for gettin' outThey raised the betting limitThe cards were falling fastI bet away my future,I already lost my pastNow I can't go back to MemphisI played out every gameI can't go back to MemphisEverybody knows my nameToo many people wanna even out the scoreAnd I can't go back to Memphis no moreI did my best to beat the systemBut the system put me back in my palaceThey maintained a delicate balanceWhere no one got in nobody's faceI was tryin' to make a dollarJust survivin' in the streetI fought the gangs, I fought the lawBut they both had me beatNow I can't go back to MemphisI played out every gameI can't go back to MemphisEverybody knows my nameToo many people wanna even out the scoreAnd I can't go back to Memphis no moreI can't go back to MemphisI can't go back to MemphisNo, no, I can't go back to MemphisNo, no, no, no I can't go back to MemphisNo, no, no, noToo many people wanna even out the scoreAnd I can't go back to Memphis no more
