Walking In Memphis - Modern Country Heroes
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
Walking with my feet ten feet off of a 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 walking in memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off a beale
Walking in memphis
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
Well you've got a prayer in mephis
Now gabriel 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 mam i am tonight
I'm walking in memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of a beale
Walking in memphis
But do i really feel the way i feel
Walking in mephis
Walking in memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off of a beale
Walking in memphis
Walking in memphis
But do i really feel the way i feel
Walking in memphis
Walking in memphis
Walking in memphis
Walking in memphis
