Back To Memphis by Billy Ray Cyrus Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It am not natural for a delta man
To be surrounded by all this sand
To fear the echoes of live rounds
And to never sleep when the sun goes down
So I'm writing you this letter
To say I miss you more than ever and to promise you this

[Chorus]
When I make it back to Memphis
I'm going to take you in my arms
And never let you go
And girl I promise you a kiss
For every day we've missed
Till I make it back to Memphis

[verse 2]
I'll have to say I think we've done some good
If I had to do it all again I know I would
There's still a few shots every now and then
But they say this thing is finally coming to an end
So this might be my final letter
I say the sooner the better because I'm ready to come home
[Chorus]

[Bridge]
She reads his letters everyday, then she puts them all away
Next to his medal and a flag, that she would gladly give back

[Verse 3]
If it would bring him back to Memphis
So he could take her in his arms
And never let her go
Because she's still waiting for a kiss
For every day they've missed
Till he made it back to Memphis

[Outro]
Back to Memphis
