(John Wayne Wiggins)      Ginger worked in a cafe   Small town in Tennessee   The cook Joe was a little slow   But he kept the floor mopped and the kitchen clean   Two young people in an old fashioned town   they got together when the cafe closed   And the Tennessee moon came out      They drove down to the river   He looked her dead in the eyes   He could feel her trembling hands   They made love by the river   And they held o tight   To those memory making nights      It happened in the winter   After the cafe closed   Ginger had a change of heart   She'd fallen out of love with Joe   Tired of the cafe   Life didn't seem right   She was getting out of that no where town   That night      They drove down to the river   He looked her dead in the eyes   He could feel her trembling hands   They made love by the river   And they held o tight   To those memory making nights      Joe went crazy when she told him good-bye   Now he sits in a small room and thinks   About that night      They drove down to the river   He looked her dead in the eyes   He could feel her trembling hands   They made love by the river   And they held o tight   To those memory making nights
