Walking In Memphis
Put on my blue suede shoesAnd I boarded the planeTouched down in the land of the Delta BluesIn the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me?Yeah, I got a first class ticketBut I'm as blue as a girl can be
Then I'm walking in MemphisI was walking with my feet ten feet off of BealeWalking in MemphisBut do I really feel the way I feel?
Saw the ghost of Elvis on Union AvenueFollowed him up to the gates of GracelandI watched him walk right through
Now security, they did not see himThey just hovered 'round his tombThere's a pretty little thing waiting for the KingDown in the Jungle Room
When I was walking in MemphisI was walking with my feet ten feet off of BealeWalking in MemphisBut 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(Walk)Walking in Memphis(Walking in Memphis)But do I really feel the way I feel?
They got catfish on the tableThey got gospel in the airReverend Green be glad to see youWhen you haven't got a prayerBoy, you've got a prayer in Memphis
Now Gabriel plays pianoEvery Friday at the HollywoodAnd they brought me down to see himThey asked me if I would
Do a little number?And I sang with all my mightHe said, "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?"And I said, "Man, I am tonight"
