Well I’d like to go to Memphis
but I don’t know the way
and I’d like to tell you how I feel
but I don’t know what to say
And I love to go to heaven
but I’ve forgotten how to pray
So just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
Well I tried to get back to her
but I got lost on the way
I’d start again tomorrow
but I don’t know what day it is
And I’d sure like to love you
if you show me the way
Just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
I don’t know what it’s like out there
but in here it’s getting darker
I’ve got a lot of things to share
but it’s sure rough getting there
Well I’d like to give you all I’ve got
but I don’t know what that is
And I’d like to take you with me
but I don’t know where that is
And I know there must be something
Some place some way to live
So just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
Just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
Some more
Just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
Just help me keeping
from sliding down some more
