Walking in Memphis |
| 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 10 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 -- |
| 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 |
| I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale |
| Walking in Memphis |
| But do I really feel the way I feel |
| Walking in Memphis |
| I was walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale |
| 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 |
| In the middle of the pouring rain |
