12 Days of Memphis Lyrics by Star & Micey

12 Days of Memphis

2010

I drove down to Memphis, and what did I see?
The ghost of Elvis Presley
On my second day in Memphis I met Ya Ya and Li Li
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
At Ardent Studios Jody Stevens gave to me
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
I was gettin' crunk on Beale Street, and who arrested me?
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
On my fifth day in Memphis I waited patiently ...
(Hey Adam, is our waitress around?
God, it seems like we ordered forever ago man
You know what I really want?)
Fried Gus' wings!
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
(Yawns) It's six in the morning, and I can't get to sleep
Watching six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
Jeff! (Hey man!) Man, I was singing hard last night
(Man, I know man, I was there)
Oh yeah, you know where I can get some food for this?
(Yeah man, I know where you can go)
Okay! After a long night of singing, I had {?] make for me
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
On my eighth day in Memphis, my hands are trembling
From eight CK's coffees
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
Hey did Prince Mongo ever make it for mayor?
(Man, I don't think he did! I don't think so)
Prince Mongo calls from another galaxy
He dials 9-0-1
Eight CK's coffees
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
Hey Jessie, (oh yeah?) do you know where I can go to church around this town? A good place?
(Uhh, I think Al Green's got a church around here)
Okay, well I think I'm gonna head over there 'cause
In the tenth row on Sunday Al Green preached to me
"God will set you free"
Dials 9-0-1
Eight CK's coffees
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
(Ugh, that smells so good!)
At Memphis in May on the Mississippi
Eleven pork butts smoking
God'll set you free
Dials 9-0-1
Eight CK's coffees
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
Hey, Adam!
(Uhh, I'm sorry man, you just want me to –
I kinda dozed off, what the hell is going on?)
Yeah I thought this band was supposed to come on at 11:00
(Man, you know Memphis, that's just they way it is)
I hear ya, I hear ya
(I hear these guys are good – who are they?)
Yeah, yeah, I think it's uhhh ...
It's midnight at the High Tone, and freakin' finally
Jack-O and the Jerkers
Eleven pork butts smoking
God'll set you free
Dials 9-0-1
Eight CK's coffees
Seven Kwik Check Ninjas
Six Black Lodge movies
Fried Gus' wings
Four Sky Cops
Three Big Star records
Two giant pandas
And the ghost of Elvis Presley
(Thank ya very much)
