Lyrics

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 In the middle of the pouring rain
