[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've got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be

[Chorus]
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?

[Verse 2]
I 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
Right down in the Jungle Room
[Chorus]
Walking in Memphis
Walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel?
(And I must say I feel pretty goddamn good right now, yeah)

[Bridge]
Yeah, 'cause they've got catfish on the table
And they've got gospel in the air (Yes they do)
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
When you, you haven't got a prayer
Boy you've got a prayer in Memphis

[Verse 3]
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 then I sang with all of my might
She said
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said
"Ma'am I am tonight"
[Chorus]
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
Yes I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel?

[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
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
Was in the middle of the
The pouring rain
