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
Then 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?
Saw the ghost of Elvis on Union Avenue Followed him up to the gates of Graceland I watched him walk right through
Now security, they did not see him They just hovered 'round his tomb There's a pretty little thing waiting for the King Down in the Jungle Room
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 (Walking in Memphis) I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel?
They got catfish on the table They got gospel in the air Reverend Green be glad to see you When you haven't got a prayer 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 They asked me if I would Do a little number? And I sang with all my might He said, "Tell me, are you a Christian, child?" And I said, "Man, I am tonight"
Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) I was walking with my feet ten feet off of Beale 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 Walking in Memphis (Walking in Memphis) But do I really feel the way I feel?
