Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
Never thought of Hades
Under the Mississippi
But still I've come to sing for him
So southern furies
Prepare to walk for my harp
I have strung, and I will leave with him
Relax the cogs of rhyme
Over the Memphis sky
Turn back the wheels of time
Under the Memphis skyline
always hated him for the way he looked
In the gaslight of the morning
Then came hallelujah sounding like Ophelia
for me in my room living
So kiss me, my darling stay with me till morning
Turn back and you will stay
Under the Memphis Skyline
Never thought of Hades   Under the Mississippi   But still I've come to sing for him   So southern furies   Prepare to walk for my harp   I have strung, and I will leave with him   Relax the cogs of rhyme   Over the Memphis sky   Turn back the wheels of time   Under the Memphis skyline   always hated him for the way he looked   In the gaslight of the morning   Then came hallelujah sounding like Ophelia   for me in my room living   So kiss me, my darling stay with me till morning   Turn back and you will stay   Under the Memphis Skyline
