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
Cause I got a first-class ticket
And I'm as blue as a boy can be
Walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
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
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 on "The King"
Down in the Jungle Room
Walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
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 will be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
You've 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 Christain"
I said "Ma'am I am tonight"
Walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel
Walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel
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 Cause I got a first-class ticket And I'm as blue as a boy can be Walking in Memphis Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis 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 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 on "The King" Down in the Jungle Room Walking in Memphis Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis 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 will be glad to see you When you haven't got a prayer You've 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 Christain" I said "Ma'am I am tonight" Walking in Memphis Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel Walking in Memphis Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel Walking in Memphis Explain Request ×
