Back in Memphis Lyrics - 1969

[ Buy Back in Memphis ]

(words & music by miller)
From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding ring
I've played a ace and i won the queen
I walked away with your heart

From a jack to a king
With no regrets i stacked, i stacked the cards, i stacked the cards last night
And lady luck played her hand just right
You made me king of your heart

Oh for just a little while i thought that i might lose the game
Oh but just in time i saw that twinkle in your eyes
From a jack to a king of loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and i won the queen
You made me king of your heart

For just a little while i thought that i might lose the game
Oh but just in time i saw, i saw that twinkle in your eyes
From a jack to a king from loneliness to a wedding, wedding, wedding ring
I played an ace and i won the queen
You made me king of your heart
