[Verse 1]
If you love somebody enough
You follow wherever they go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Verse 2]
If you love somebody enough
You go where your heart wants to go
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Chorus]
I know if you'd seen her
You'd tell me 'cause you are my friend
Well, I've got to find her
And find out the trouble she's in

[Verse 3]
You tell me that she's not here
I'll just follow the trail of her tears
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
She'd get mad and she used to say
She'd come back to Memphis someday
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Verse 5]
Well, I haven't eaten a bite
Or slept in three days and nights
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Chorus]
Yeah, well, I've got to find her
And tell her that I love her so
Yeah, I'll never rest
'Til I find out why she had to go

[Verse 6]
Thank you for your precious time
Forgive me if I start to cry
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis

[Outro]
That's how I got to Memphis
That's how I got to Memphis
