[Verse]
          A
I've been struggling up here just trying to make a living
     A
Everybody wants to take and nobody likes giving
       D
I wish I was back in Memphis back home home with my mama
         A
The only clothes I got left that ain't rags is my pajamas
         E
Yeah, no brotherly love and no help and no danger
       A
Just a great big town full of cold-hearted strangers

[Verse]
       A
I went hungry in New York, Chicago was no better
      A
But today, my dear mother wrote and told me in her letter
      D
Said, come home back to Memphis and live here with your mama
        A
You can walk down Beale Street, honey, wearing your pajamas
         E
You know folks down here, they let do just like you wanna
      A
And I born you and raised you right here on the corner

I'm gonna get up in the morning goin' to the station
         A
I've got just enough money to reach my destination
      D
I'm going back to Memphis, back home to my mama
          A
I'm gonna ride that bus barefoot in my pajamas
      E
Yeah, goin' back to Memphis, no moaning and groaning
       A
I know everything will be all right in the morning
