Walking in Memphis

<Intro>

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 girl can be

When I'm 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

...

Saw the ghost of Elvis on Union Avenue

Followed him up to the gates of Graceland

And watched him walk right through

Now security they did not see him

They just hovered around his tomb

There's a pretty little thing waiting for the King

Down in the Jungle Room

Well, I was walking in Memphis

I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale

Walking in Memphis

Do I really feel the way I feel

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

Reverend Green'll be glad to see you

When you haven't got a prayer

But boy, you've got a prayer in Memphis

...

Now Gabriel plays piano

Every Friday at the Hollywood

And they brought me down to see him

And they asked me if I would

Do a little number

And I sang with all my might

He said:

"Tell me, are you a Christian, child?"

And I said: "Man, I am tonight."

...

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

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

...

Put on my blue suede shoes
