Sequestered in Memphis Lyrics

Artist: The Hold Steady
Album: Stay Positive

It started when we were dancin'
It got heavy when we got to the bathroom
We didn't go back to her place
We went to some place where she cat sits.
She said, "I know I look tired
But everything's fried here in Memphis."

Man, they want to know exactly which bathroom
Dude it doesn't make any difference
It can't be important.
Yeah, sure I'll tell my story again ...

[Chorus]

In barlight, she looked alright
In daylight, she looked desperate
That's alright I was desperate too
I'm getting pretty sick of this interview

Subpoenaed in Texas, sequestered in Memphis
Subpoenaed in Texas, sequestered in Memphis

I think she drove a new Mustang
I guess it might be a rental
I remember she had satellite radio
I guess she seemed a bit nervous
Do you think I'm that stupid?
Well look, what the hell, I'll tell my story again ...

[Chorus]

I went there on business ...
