Eddy Mitchell (born Claude Moine July 3, 1942, Paris) is a French singer and actor. He began his career in the late 1950s, with the group Les Chaussettes Noires (The Black Socks), taking his name from the American expatriate tough-guy actor Eddie Constantine (later the star of Jean-Luc Godard's Alphaville). The band performed at the Parisian nightclub Le Golf Drouot before signing to Barclay Records and finding almost instant success; in 1961 it sold two million records.

Heavily influenced by American rock & roll, Mitchell (who went solo in 1963) has often recorded outside France, at first in London, but later in Memphis and Nashville, Tennessee. Guitarist Jimmy Page and drummer Bob Graham were among the British session musicians who regularly supported him in London.

Sur La Route De Memphis
Eddy Mitchell Lyrics
J'écoutais le disc-jockey
Dans la voiture qui me traînait
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Et la radio me vantait
Un truc débile qui m'endormait
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Je viens vers elle
Elle m'attend dans sa robe blanche
L'amour en province ressemble un peu à un dimanche
Sur le siège avant, le chauffeur
Buvait de la bière en regardant l'heure
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
À la place du mort, un chien-loup
Me jetait un regard un peu fou
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Je viens vers elle, mais pas dans une Rolls blanche
Dans un costume un peu élimé aux manches
J'ai le droit de me taire et d'fumer
En gardant mes menottes aux poignets
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Pour une fois les flics ont gagné
Vers chez toi je ne fais que passer
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
Sur la route de Memphis
