From the recording Marshall Artz
Lyrics
DC to Memphis
I decided to take a ride from Washington DC
Gonna point my car to Memphis Tennessee
From power play politicians
To the birthplace of the blues
From highly polished wing tips
To step on blue suede shoes
Gonna ease out on the beltway ‘til I hit 66
Then I’ll get on 81 and I’ll head for the sticks
Through the Shenandoah Valley
To the misty Smokey Mountains
From the reflecting pool to
To the Peabody’s fountain
From the capital of the country
To the capital of county
Gonna cool my heels in the muddy Mississippi
From the home of presidents
To the home of the king
Gonna play my guitar
Gonna rock and sing
I decided to take a ride from Washington DC
Gonna point my car to Memphis Tennessee
From power play politicians
To the birthplace of the blues
From highly polished wingtips
To step on blue suede shoes
