Couplet
AWhat's the temperature darling, D100 and more?
The Ahorses pawing out the dust, but it's EWilton by the door
But you Apour your strongest coffee and I'll Dtake back of the wheel
We'll Adrive straight down the river road, spread a Eblanket on the hill
AWhat's the temperature, darling, I don't Dstare into the past?
There was Anothing that we could change or fix, it was Enever gonna last
Now don't Astare into those photos, don't Dmemorize my eyes
We're just a Amile or two from Memphis in the Erhythm of our minds
Refrain
DA Emile Dor two from Memphis and I must Ego away
I Atore up all the highways, now there's Dnothing left to say
A Amile or two from Memphis Eand I finally made it Ahome
A D D A A E E
Couplet
There were Adays you paced the kitchen, there were Dnights that felt like jail
When the Aphone rang in the dead of night you'd Ealways throw my veil
No, you Anever touched the whiskey and you Dnever took the pills
I Atravelled for a million miles while Eyou were standing still
AWhat's the temperature, darling, as the Ddaylight fades way?
I'll Amake one last rehearsal with Eone foot in the grave
We kept the Ahouse on all the corners, we kept the Dpolished bass guitar
We kept the Atickets and the wheels of tape to reEmember who we are
Refrain
A Dmile or two from Memphis and EI must go away
I Atore up all the highways, now there's Dnothing left to say
A Amile or two from Memphis Eand I finally made it Ahome
A D D A A E E
AWhat's the temperature, darling?
