Handy Wont you look down over me Yeah, I got a first class ticket But Im as blue as a boy can be Then Im 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? 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 did not see him They just hovered round his tomb But theres a pretty little thing Waiting for the King And shes 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? Now, theyve got catfish on the table Theyve got gospel in the air And Reverend Green, be glad to see you When you havent got a prayer But boy you 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, Maam, I am tonight! 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?
