LYRICS (M Spiby)
Way back Friday wasn't my day
I hung my boots on the factory door
I found a diesel headed my way
I made my bed here on the floor
where the station never closes
only people here shut down
though id never live to see the day
the likes of whom would fade away
and out of the dark night i see
There's a light on in Memphis
There's a party there tonight
Someone left the light on in Memphis
Oh Elvis must be coming home tonight
Singing Elvis won't you come on home
I got to know you, I've got to own you
I want to help you any way I can
I know you're out there, out there somewhere
your mystery train keeps rolling on
Till i see the light on in Memphis
I keep your candle burning bring
Someone left the light on in Memphis
Oh Elvis must be coming home tonight
Singing Elvis wont you coming on home
well I'm not one for complaining
But you're not answering my mail
I thought I'd never live to see the day
The likes of whom will fade away
And out of the dark night I see
I can see, see the light on in Memphis
your candle burns in Tennessee
Someone left the light on in Memphis
Well Elvis must be coming home tonight
Singing Elvis wont you come on home
Come on home now, yeah
Shining so bright
yeah, let it shine
Let it shine, let it shine, ooh
Your mama is waiting for you, your daddy too
Someone left the light on
Left it burning bright
