[VERSE 1]
A7
I've been struggling up here, just, 
trying to make a living

Everybody wants to take, nobody 
likesgiving
    D7
I wish I was in Memphis back home 
with my Mama
         A7
The only clothes I got left that 
ain't rags is my pajamas
   E7
No brotherly love, no help, no 
danger
        A7
Just a great big town full of cold 
hearted strangers

[VERSE 2]
   A7
I went hungry in New York and 
Chicago was no better

But today, my dear mother wrote and 
told me in her letter
   D7
Said, come on back to Memphis and 
live here with your Mama
   A7
You can walk down Beale Street 
honey, wearing your pajamas
             E7
You know  folks down here, we let do
 just what you want to
        A7
And I born you and raised you right 
here on the corner

[VERSE 3]
A7
I'm going get up in the morning 
going to the bus station

I've got just enough money to reach 
my destination
     D7
I'm going back to Memphis, back home
 with my Mama
             A7
I'm going to ride that bus barefoot 
in my  pajamas
E7
Yeah I'm going back to Memphis, no 
moaning and groaning
        A7
I know everything will be all right 
in the morning
