Memphis water washing all your fears away   Memphis water you're a hero so they say   But you're scared to be yourself   You don't wanna be no one else   In case you falter      I'm on the outside   On the outside looking in   I just met myself on the road   I gotta tell you I'm looking pretty thin   I'm scared to be myself   I don't wanna be no one else   In case I falter      You know how it feels   You taught me to follow my fortune   But you've brought me to my knees      You know sorrow   Sorrow can be replaced   A blind man, said you left without a trace   Oh yeah you left without a trace      Memphis water can't you see what you have done   You gave us all sweet sweet cheer   Gave us cheer when we had none   But we're scared to be ourselves   We don't want to be no one else   In case we falter   In case we falter
