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?

'Cause I got a first class ticket and I'm as blue as a boy can be 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? Saw the ghost of Elvis down 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 Walking in Memphis

Walking with my feet ten feet off of beale

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

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

She said, "Tell me are you a Christian child?"

And I said, "Ma'am I am tonight" Walking in Memphis

Walking with my feet ten feet off of beale

Walking in Memphis

Do I really feel the way I feel? Walking in Memphis

Walking with my feet ten feet off of beale

Walking in Memphis

Do I really feel the way I feel?

Oh, walking in Memphis
