The story is true, folks
Once there was a girl in my life
And her name was Kay
You spell it K-A-Y
Kay was a very beautiful girl
A wonderful person
And she was built up like a Coca-Cola bottle
And I know Kay loved me
But being a traveling man
I got missed from my Kay somehow
So when I goes back to Kay's hometown
I was unable to find her
So since I described her
I wanna ask each and everyone underneath the sound of my voice
If you see a girl like this
Please tell her Memphis Slim is trying to contact her
Better still, I'd like to tell you more about her

If you see Kay
Tell her I said hurry home
If you see Kay
Please tell her I said hurry home
Tell Kay I ain't had no lovin'
Since my little girl been gone

But you know something?
A man can't go around forever lookin' for a certain girl
Maybe something happened to the girl
She could be dead
Or something terrible could have happened to her
Maybe she gotten married

So long
I guess I'll be on my way
So long
People, I guess I'll be on my way

But be sure to contact Memphis Slim
People, if you see Kay
