[Lyric] Sequestered in Memphis (The Hold Steady)

[Verse 1]
It started when we were dancing
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

[Verse 2]
She said: I know I look tired
But everything's fried here in Memphis
Now they wanna know exactly which bathroom
Dude, does it make any difference? It can't be important

[Chorus]
Yeah sure, I'll tell my story again
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

[Hook]
Subpoenaed in Texas
Sequestered in Memphis
[Verse 3]
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?

[Chorus]
What the hell, I'll tell the story again
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

[Hook]
Subpoenaed in Texas
Sequestered in Memphis

[Outro]
I went there on 'business'
