Walking In Memphis (The Voice Performance)-Patrick Dodd
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 boy can be.
walking in Memphis,
Walking with my feet ten feet off of a Beale.
Walking in Memphis.
do I really feel the way I feel.
Saw the ghost of Elvis
On Union Avenue.
Followed him up to the gates of Graceland
Then I him watched 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.
I was walking in Memphis,
Walking with my feet ten feet off a Beale.
Walking in Memphis.
do I really feel the way I feel.
They've got catfish on the table.
They've got gospel in the air.
Reverend Green will be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer.
Oh you've got a prayer in Mephis
And now Mephis plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood.
And they glad me down to see you
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, "Mam, I am tonight."
