1
Put on my blue suede shoes
2
And I boarded the plane
3
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
4
In the middle of the pouring rain
5
W.C. Handy, won't you look down over me?
6
Yeah, I got a first class ticket
7
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
8
Then I'm walking in Memphis
9
I was walking with my feet
10
Ten feet off of Beale
11
Walking in Memphis
12
But do I really feel the way I feel
13
Saw the ghost of Elvis on Union Avenue
14
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
15
And watched him walk right through
16
Now security, they did not see him
17
They just hovered around his tomb
18
But there's a pretty little thing
19
Waiting for the king down in the jungle room
20
When I was walking in Memphis
21
I was walking with my feet
22
Ten feet off of Beale
23
Walking in Memphis
24
But do I really feel the way I feel
25
Walking in Memphis
26
I was walking with my feet
27
Ten feet off of Beale
28
Walking in Memphis
29
But do I really feel the way I feel
30
They got catfish on the table
31
They got gospel in the air
32
And Rev. Green be glad to see you
33
When you haven't got a prayer
34
But boy you've got a prayer in Memphis
35
Now Muriel plays piano
36
Every Friday at The Hollywood
37
And they brought me down to see her
38
They asked me if I would
39
Do a little number
40
And I sang with all my might
41
She said, "Tell me are you a Christian, child?"
42
And I said, "Ma'am, I am tonight"
43
Walking in Memphis
44
I was walking with my feet
45
Ten feet off of Beale
46
Walking in Memphis
47
But do I really feel the way I feel
48
Walking in Memphis
49
I was walking with my feet
50
Ten feet off of Beale
51
Walking in Memphis
52
But do I really feel the way I feel
53
Put on my blue suede shoes
