Walking in Memphis Lyrics by Cher

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
WC 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

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off a beel
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
And I watched him walk right through
Now security they did not see him
They just huddled round his tomb
There's a pretty little thing waiting for the King
Down in the jungle room

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off a beel
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off a beel
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
But boy you got a prayer in Memphis
Now Gabriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see him
And 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

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off a beel
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel

Then I'm walking in Memphis
I was walking with my feet ten feet off a beel
Walking in Memphis
But do I really feel the way I feel

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
