Of course I have no idea where in Long Island you would be leaving from, so I picked a spot. Same for Memphis at the end. Microsoft Streets and Trips comes up with this, a 2 day trip starting at 7 am and stopping at 5 pm and an overnight in Cinci :
Basically it is I-78 from New Jersey to I-81 at Harrisburg, pick up I-76 to New Stanton. Then I-70 to Columbus, there take I-270 to by-pass Columbus to I-71 and follow I-71 to Lousiville. There pick up I-65 to Nashville and then I-40 all the way to Memphis.
Happy travelling
