Lyrics
IntroVerse 1
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
Chorus 1
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?
Verse 2
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
Chorus 2
Bridge
Now, 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
But boy you’ve got a prayer in Memphis
Verse 3
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"
Chorus 3,4
Verse 4 (= Verse 1) +
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
