Long distance information
        Give me Memphis, Tennessee
        Try to find the party
        Trying to get in touch with me
        She would not leave her number
        But I know who placed the call
        `Cause my uncle took the message
        And he wrote it on the wall 
      Help me, information
        Get in touch with my Marie
        She`s the only one who`d phone me here
        From Memphis, Tennessee
        Her home is on the south side
        Just beyond the ridge
        Just a half a mile
        From the Mississippi Bridge
      Help me, information
        More than that I cannot add
        Only that I miss her
        And all the fun we had
        We were pulled apart
        Because her mom would not agree
        Help me get in touch with her
        In Memphis, Tennessee
      The last time I saw Marie
        She was waving me goodbye
        With hurry homedrops on her cheek
        That trickled from her eyes
        Marie is only six years old
        Information please
        Help me get in touch with her
        In Memphis, Tennessee
