heading down the highway to memphis tennesee
theres party going on at the memphis jamboree
country bands are playing a country song or two
till the break of day dance for the whole night through

put whisky in the jar  dancing in your feet
dancing all night long to the country beat
slapping and clapping  dancing heel to toe
dancing altogether let the party flow

dance the night away to a country song
to the country band dance the whole night long
slapping and clapping  dancing heel to toe
dancing altogether let the party flow

party time is here in memphis tenesee
dancing all night long at the jamboree
put whisky in the jar  dancing in your feet
dancing all night long to the country beat
