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 girl can be

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

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 down in the jungle room

[Chorus]

They've got catfish on the table

They've got gospel in the air

And reverend green be glad to see you

When you haven't got a prayer

But 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

And they asked me if I would - do a little number

And I sang with all my might

And he said - tell me are you a christian child?

And I said man I am tonight

[Chorus]

Put on my blue suede shoes
