Intro : Long-distance information, get me Memphis, Tennessee Help me find the party who tried to get in touch with me She could not leave her number, but I know who placed the call 'Cause my uncle took a message and he wrote it on the wall Help me, information, get in touch with my Marie She's the only one who called me here from Memphis, Tennessee Her home is on the south side, high upon the ridge Just a half a mile from the Mississippi bridge (Couplet instrumental) Help me, information, more than that I cannot add Only that I miss her and all the fun we had But we were pulled apart because her mom would not agree Tore apart our happy home in Memphis, Tennessee Last time I saw Marie, she was wavin'me goodbye With hurry-home drops on her cheeks that trickled from her eyes Marie is only 6 years old; information please Try to put me through to her in Memphis, Tennessee

La chanson raconte l'angoisse d'un homme qui essaie de retrouver sa jeune fille, Marie, qui vit à Memphis. Il se souvient de leur bonheur ensemble, mais leur séparation est due au désaccord de sa mère. Il se sent accablé par l'absence de Marie, qui n'a que six ans, et il espère désespérément pouvoir reprendre contact avec elle. Cette quête de réconciliation montre profondément son attachement et son désespoir face à la distance qui les sépare.
