Marc Cohn - Walking In Memphis Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • 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 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
  • (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
  • But boy you've got a prayer in memphis
  • 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
  • And she said --
  • "tell me are you a christian child?"
  • And i said "ma'am i am tonight"
  • (chorus)
  • 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
  • Touched down in the land of the delta blues
  • In the middle of the pouring rain
