Walking In Memphis lyrics:
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've 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 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 around his tomb
But 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?
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
She said
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said
"Ma'am 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?
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?
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

Together In Concert - Official show announcement:
Shawn Colvin, Marc Cohn & Sarah Jarosz come together onstage for a special evening. A singular and enduring talent, Grammy winner Shawn Colvin's songs like "Sunny Came Home" are slow-release works of craft and catharsis that become treasured, lifetime companions for their listeners. After winning a Grammy for his soulful ballad “Walking in Memphis,” Marc Cohn solidified his place as one of this generation’s most compelling singer-songwriters, combining the precision of a brilliant tunesmith with the passion of a great soul man.

[@Jack-kh8er]

Without question, one of the best songs ever recorded...

[@almiguel]

I can't explain it but I always tear up at that part of the song with Muriel and "Ma'am, I am tonight."

[@robertroyal8893]

Live in Memphis. Love this song and I really had catfish and fried pickles at the Hollywood while listening to Muriel. Such a good memory. Marc thanks for feeling about Memphis like I do.

[@CS-xv6mx]

Random Alaskan here with a LATE comment but I had to do it. My wife and I spent a couple days passing through Memphis last week (5/24), stayed at Arrive. We went to Rendezvous, walked around the riverfront....we both really enjoyed the vibe. Cool little city. Sorry for all the gun violence though.

[@BelieveThePanda]

There's something in the way he sings this song like it's a thank you to Muriel, especially when he gets to her part in the song you can see him thinking about her. I wasn't expecting to be brought to tears but that part hit hard.

[@robgindc1]

This. Audience singing along to the chorus is awesome, heartfelt, nice. ♥️🙏

This such a well written song. Lovely hearing Marc sing it with such feeling and honor to the success of this song that the whole audience probably could sing all the lyrics with him.

My favorite song has always been "Ghost train", but "Walking..." is a beautiful and unique song. It is incredible to see him in 2023 singing with the same energy as so many years ago. And the anecdote was great!! ❤😄😄

3s into the song he's like c'mon XD sings it too fast and flat...

[@philiprivera6570]

Hate it when artist sing differently in person. Off rhythm and key, I wanna hear it like on the record.

[@cl2008cl2008]

What a boring world that would be if musicians just played everything live to match the recorded version. It's the unexpected--a novel arrangement, new instruments added, a unique harmony created, an adjustment to the tempo, an improvised solo, an extended instrumental section, an embellished coda at the end--that makes it so much fun to go to concerts. And it's what justifies the ticket price and the effort to go. Otherwise you could just stay home and listen to the studio version. Speaking of which, you're in for a lot of disappointment out there. Most performers are mixing it up on stage to keep things entertaining for themselves and the audience. 🎶💃🕺

[@rosemaryschaffnerlindle6977]

If you want to hear the song delivered exactly as performed on the record, then just but the record and don't listen to other version!
