they say that there is heaven they say that there is hell
which way do we go can we really tell
is it down below hidden underground
are there little demons flying all around

does the devil take your soul  do you become his knave
does he take control do you become his slave
or do we go to heaven in the sky above
to where the angels stay in there land of love

we will never know until the day we die
is it down below or heaven in the sky

driving down the highway mind in overload
going in to overdrive ready to explode
memories of you going through my head
missing you so much wishing i was dead

you walked away from me for somebody new
told me we over told me were through
thought we had it all from the very start
were meant to be now were miles apart

driving down the highway heading home to you
ask you to forgive me start again a new
mind is in a whirl with its overload
going in to overdrive ready to explode

heading home to memphis on the midnight train
back home to my roots start over once again
place i was raised that meant so much to me
home again once more to memphis tenessee

had enough of heartaches sorrow and the pain
heading home to memphis start over once again
back to all my friends and my family
be happy once again like i used to be

had enough of drifting till the sun goes down
each and every place each and every town
find someone to love raise a family
back home to my roots in memphis tenessee

theres nothing quite like love to bring you happiness
filled with tenderness and a warm caress
makes you feel secure makes you feel so calm
such a lovely feeling filled with so much charm.

something that you share something that you give
to the one you love as long as you may live
makes the world go round in each and every place
all across the universe no matter what the race

when the bluebirds fly it such a sight to see
along the cliffs the dover flying wild and free
flying all in unison like a squadron in the sky
underneath the sun as they go flying bye

showing of there colors very blue and bright
gleaming in the sun bringing such delight
flying all around high above the sea
flying all in unison  as happy as can be

i love to watch the rabbits running round in spring
listening to the birds as they begin sing
watching all the flowers with there springtime show
with there many colors giving life a glow

all the joys of spring there in front of you
there in all its glory free for you to view
natures work of art there for you to see
a beauty to behold in natures gallery

theres nothing like a dog to keep you company
a friend for ever more he will always be
faithful as can be he will always stay
giving love to you every single day

he will comfort you when you need a friend
faithful as can be till the very end
your friend for evermore he will always be
always by your side to keep you company
