[Intro]
(Goin' back, I'm goin' back
To Memphis, Tennessee)
[Verse 1]
Mama, I was just takin' off
It's sure late, but I'm on the road
Is it OK if I stay with you tonight?
He had too much to drink again
And he went from a gentleman
Into a demon I don't recognize
Whoo-ooh-ooh
Whoo-whoo
[Verse 2]
We got into an awful fight
My life flashed before my eyes
Never seen him in a rage like this before
And I said some things you won't believe
The way I cuss, the way he screamed
Couldn't stand the sight of him anymore
[Chorus]
Well, I'm tired of these tears on my pillow
There's gotta be a better life for me
So I'm drivin' out to find my hero
I hope he's back home in Tennessee
