|
Put on my blue suede shoes |
|
And I boarded the plane |
|
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues |
|
In the middle of the pouring rain |
|
W.C. Handy |
|
Won't you look down over me |
|
Yeah, I got a first class ticket |
|
But I'm as blue as a boy can be |
|
Then I'm walking in Memphis |
|
Was walking with my feet, ten feet off of Beale |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
But do I really feel the way I feel |
|
Saw the ghost of Elvis |
|
On Union Avenue |
|
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland |
|
Then I watched him walk right through |
|
Now security they did not see him |
|
They just hovered 'round his tomb |
|
But there's a pretty little thing, waiting for the king |
|
Down in the Jungle Room |
|
When I was walking in Memphis |
|
I was walking with my feet, ten feet off of Beale |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
But do I really feel the way I feel |
|
They've got catfish on the table |
|
They've got gospel in the air |
|
And Reverend Green, be glad to see you |
|
When you haven't got a prayer |
|
Boy, you got a prayer in Memphis |
|
Now Muriel, plays piano |
|
Every Friday at the Hollywood |
|
And they brought me down to see her |
|
And they asked me if I would |
|
To do a little number |
|
And I sang with all my might |
|
She said, "Tell me are you a Christian child?" |
|
And I said, "Ma'am, I am tonight" |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
(Walking in Memphis) |
|
I was walking with my feet, ten feet off of Beale |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
(Walking in Memphis) |
|
But do I really feel the way I feel |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
(Walking in Memphis) |
|
I was walking with my feet, ten feet off of Beale |
|
Walking in Memphis |
|
(Walking in Memphis) |
|
But do I really feel the way I feel |
|
Put on my blue suede shoes |
|
And I boarded the plane |
|
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues |
|
In the middle of the pouring rain |
|
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues |
