Lyrics

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've got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be

But I'm walking in memphis
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
Down on union avenue
Followed him up to the gates of graceland
And I watched him walk right through
Now security they did not see him
They just hovered 'round his tomb
There's a pretty little thing
Waiting for the king
Down in the jungle room

When I was.. walking(chorus)

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
You got a prayer in memphis

Now muriel plays the 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"

[Repeat chorus 3x]
