All the Way From Memphis Big Dipper (band)

[Verse 1]
Forgot my six-string razor
And hit the sky
Half way to Memphis before I realised
I rang the information
My axe was cold
They said she rides the train to Oriole

[Chorus]
Now it's a mighty long way down a dusty trail
And the sun burns hot on the cold steel rails
And I look like a bum, and I crawl like a snail!
(All the way from Memphis)

[Verse 2]
I got to Oriole
Y'know, it took a month
And there was my guitar, electric junk
Some dude said "Rock 'n' rollers
You're all the same
Man, that's your instrument?"
I felt so ashamed

[Chorus]
Now it's a mighty long way down rock'n'roll
Through the Bradford cities and the Orioles
And you look like a star, but you're still on the dole!
(All the way from Memphis)
