D. J. Memphis Joe

Headin' down to Memphis draggin' a heavy load

Cold night wind a blowin' on a long dark stretch of road

The night had been a long one the hours were going slow

Started gettin' sleepy so turned on my radio

(Hi welcome to the night show got a ton of records here to spin

If you're out there traveling on the road oh be careful there my friends

Got news alive at 55 and understand the weatherman says snow

Till six a.m. just be my guest I'm DJ Memphis Joe)

Just rolled on through Brownsville my rig was runnin' fine

Heard Joe give a warnin' icy roads on down the line

Well I better gear her down now there's a bad curve up ahead

And if by chance I hit that ice I might wind up dead

(Yeah you listen to the night show for all you truck drivin' men

I got a brand new record here called Diesel No 10

Now the snow's begun so on your run just take it kinda slow

And keep your dial set where it is to DJ Memphis Joe)

I can just see Memphis down in the morning light

Hear Joe signin' off now we made it through another night

But anytime I'm a travelin' down a long dark road

There'll be a station somewhere with a DJ named of Joe
