Lyric discussion by redshiftdazzler 

The song is "Memphis". :) It is exactly what the city and the people are like. The massive river with the name to match and yes Miss Muriel I am a Christian. :) I love this song for nostalgic reasons.

He says "ma'am, I am tonight". He's saying he's caught up in the power of the moment, not that he really is a christian, otherwise he'd have said, "Yes Ma'am I am a Christian".
