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
Cause I got a first class ticket
7
But I'm as blue as a boy can be
8
Walking in Memphis
9
Walking with my feet ten feet off of the Beale
10
Walking in Memphis
11
Do I really feel the way I feel
12
Saw the ghost of Elvis
13
On Union Avenue
14
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
15
Then I watched him walk right through
16
Now security they did not see him
17
They just hovered 'round his tomb
18
But there's a pretty little thing
19
Waiting on the King
20
Down in the Jungle Room
21
(Chorus)
22
They've got catfish on the table
23
They've got gospel in the air
24
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
25
When you haven't got a prayer
26
But you got a prayer in Memphis
27
Now Muriel plays piano
28
Every Friday at the Hollywood
29
And they brought me down to see her
30
And they asked me if I would --
31
Do a little number
32
And I sang with all my might
33
And she said --
34
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
35
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"
36
(Chorus)
37
Put on my blue suede shoes
38
And I boarded the plane
39
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
40
In the middle of the pouring rain
41
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
42
In the middle of the pouring rain
43
