Lookin’ at you through a misty moonlight
Katydid sing like a symphony
Porch swing swayin’ like a Tennessee lullaby
Melody blowing through a willow tree
What was I supposed to do
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
A lonely boy far from home
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Read about you in a Faulkner novel
Met you once in a Williams play
Heard about you in a country love song
Summer night beauty took my breath away
What was I supposed to do
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
A lonely boy far from home
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Every night now since I’ve been back home
Lie awake at night drifting in my memory
I think about you on your momma’s front porch swing
Talking that way, so soft to me
What was I supposed to do
Standin’ there lookin’ at you
A lonely boy far from home
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Maybe it was Memphis
Maybe it was southern summer nights
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Maybe it was you, maybe it was me
But it sure felt right
Oh maybe it was Memphis
