Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 girl can be [Chorus] Then I'm walking in Memphis I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel? [Verse 2] 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 around his tomb But there's a pretty little thing Waiting for the King Down in the Jungle Room [Chorus] When I was walking in Memphis I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel? Walking in Memphis I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis But do I really feel the way I feel? [Bridge] They've got catfish on the table (Ooh) They've got gospel in the air (Ah) And Reverend Green will be glad to see you When you haven't got a prayer But boy, you've got a prayer in Memphis Now Gabriel plays piano every Friday at the Hollywood And they brought me down to see him And they asked me if I would do a little number And I sang with all my might And he said "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?" And I said "Man, I am tonight!" [Chorus] Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale (Oh) Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel? Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale (Oh) Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel? [Outro] Put on my blue suede shoes
