| When I checked in to South Carolina, I was livin' on bread and beans
|
| Well, I had to go to places I know and places I had never seen
|
| Well, I got me a girl from the mid-west country who sure knew the way around
|
| So we left Jake’s Bar in the big fast car and now I’m Arizona bound
|
| We took the highway out to Salt Lake City, around the Colorado Ridge
|
| Without a kick or a shove I just fell in love out on the Mississippi Bridge
|
| If I had the respect for this real fine lady, I’d tell her where my soul is at
|
| I gotta find me a job, I didn’t know she could rob me, I must have been a real
|
| dumb cat
|
| Get me back to Buffalo Station, I never need take another vacation
|
| Working overtime at Buffalo Station, that’s where I belong
|
| Give me a ticket to Buffalo Station, I couldn’t wish for a greater occupation
|
| Get me back to Buffalo Station, that’s where I belong
|
| The law came down, took hold of my daddy, so he had to send me all his dough
|
| When a real cool guy in an old school tie came over on the radio
|
| There’s a beautiful girl from the North State prison who stole the money and my
|
| name
|
| So I’m scrubbing the bins in that Holiday Inn to make it on the road again
|
| Get me back to Buffalo Station, I never need take another vacation
|
| Working overtime at Buffalo Station, that’s where I belong

|
| If you see my woman on your way back home
|
| Tell her I’ll be gone but I won’t be long
|
| Well, I set of in the mornin' with a no good pair of shoes
|
| My guitar’s alright, so I can play all night
|
| Get on down, get on down to Memphis
|
| Where the steel guitar man plays so hard, it’ll blow you down
|
| Down, down, get on down to Memphis
|
| The one back door in the record store could help me if I get on down
|
| If you see my baby goin' on down the road
|
| With her blue drawers on, well, they’ll soon be gone
|
| It’s no good feelin' angry, makes no sense at all
|
| No matter who you are, be a rock on star
|
| Get on down, get on down to Memphis
|
| Where the steel guitar man plays so hard, it’ll blow you down
|
| Goin' down, down, get on down to Memphis
|
