There's a show tonight at the seven house
Gotta catch a ride from Germantown
While I breath I hope
On nights like these
But that was then and it makes me think
We're just suburban kids,
That lie about where we're from
These streets may be dirty
But we call them home
♪
You can find Poplar Avenue wherever you are
From Collierville to Shangri-La
Spinning 45s of the Oblivions
If we're all Goners then we all win
We're just midtown kids
That brag about where we're from
These streets may be dirty but we call them home
♪
Catch a river boat ride up the Mississippi
By the Pyramid and on to Beale Street
I don't play the guitar like BB King
But they know my name in the Bluff City
We're just Memphis Kids proud of where we're from
These streets may be dirty but we call them home
