Lonestar-Walkin in memphis


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

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 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
And she said --
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"

(Chorus)

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
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain

  • Who really sang this song?

    Like there so many different people when i search it up

    

  • @fudpucker15 good for him

  • @MegaSaab007 I find it very faithful and very well done. Awesome vocals and great musicianship.

  • ....AAAH HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!!....

  • wow horrible version of this great song.

  • This seems to be an emflaming topic. I agree with The McMayMay's statement fully. I may have commented without fully taking all of rap's artist's into account.

  • @cturk123 WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU!!!!! Rap is an amazing genre of music. The shit thats on the radio's today isn't real rap. But I listen to all types of music and rap is one of the best. If you want real rap listen to people like Tupac, Biggie, Run Dmc, Akon, Eminem, Nelly. People like that are talking about their struggles in life and how they over came them. That's real rap. Bullshit about getting bitches and money is worthless and isn't even music. Don't judge shit of today for being real rap.

  • @babyimback i gotta wonder how you know?
