Memphis, Tennessee Lyrics

Lyric discussion by MrLongrove 

Cover art for Memphis, Tennessee lyrics by Chuck Berry

I agree with Tiger and deranged. Seems to be a man trying to contact his daughter after a divorce where the wife got custody of the little girl. Awesome song.

What’s so clever about it is, you don’t know until the last line that it’s his daughter. Up to that point it sounds like an ex-wife.
