She was seventeen left Arkansas moved here on her own After mom's boyfriend and a tornado tore up her home She brought her small dog with her but she left behind her old clothes She emptied out albums of pictures by the side of the road She'd make some money then she would leave But Memphis is not what it used to be
She got a job in Memphis cause she lied about her age Said she'd give it a try up on the stage At the Platinum Plus club she was a dancing, dancing to the drugs and the music If her body was a weapon, she had learned how to use it So give her the money if you wanted to see Memphis is not what it used to be
