Drinking in a Biel Street bar
There's a fog rollin' off the Mississippi
Has anybody seen Arkansas?
And the deckhands from the toll boats
Come ashore wearin' Mexican shoes
They headed strait for Graceland
It was the first thing they wanted to do
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Marchetti singin' the blues
Soul sisters hugging Senoritas
All sportin' Blue suede shoes
Pork pie hats and sombreros
Hangin' on a downtown street
Swingin' pool cues at Pinatas
Don't that river smell sweet?
And they all come to get 'em some Memphis
A little somethin' for their souls
'Lone riders land up with limousines
Hey, they all came to rock and roll
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Marchetti singin' the blues
Southern belles and Senoritas
All sportin' Blue suede shoes
Cinco de Mayo in Memphis
Marchetti singin' the blues
Soul sisters hugging Senoritas
All sportin' Blue suede shoes
Meanwhile down on Biel Street Drinking in a Biel Street bar There's a fog rollin' off the Mississippi Has anybody seen Arkansas? And the deckhands from the toll boats Come ashore wearin' Mexican shoes They headed strait for Graceland It was the first thing they wanted to do Cinco de Mayo in Memphis Marchetti singin' the blues Soul sisters hugging Senoritas All sportin' Blue suede shoes Pork pie hats and sombreros Hangin' on a downtown street Swingin' pool cues at Pinatas Don't that river smell sweet? And they all come to get 'em some Memphis A little somethin' for their souls 'Lone riders land up with limousines Hey, they all came to rock and roll Cinco de Mayo in Memphis Marchetti singin' the blues Southern belles and Senoritas All sportin' Blue suede shoes Cinco de Mayo in Memphis Marchetti singin' the blues Soul sisters hugging Senoritas All sportin' Blue suede shoes Explain Request ×
