Moon Over Memphis Lyrics

There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
It's shining through the smoke from the barrel of my gun

That moon over Memphis it don't understand
That moon over Memphis it just don't understand lord
That I found my woman in the arms of another man

And the sun in Chicago it won't ask me why
I ran away from Memphis and a man had to die
There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
It's shining through the smoke from the barrel of my gun

That moon over Memphis is hanging like a judge
That moon over Memphis is hanging like a judge
It's showing no mercy on a man who held a grudge

And the stars up in heaven will never see my face
For what I did in Memphis can never be erased
There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
It's shining through the smoke from the barrel of my gun

There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
It's shining through the smoke from the barrel of my gun

There's a moon over Memphis
There's a moon over Memphis
There's a moon over Memphis looking down on what I've done
