Memphis

He’s always in Memphis
Walking the streets
Looking at people 
He will never speak
 Life now reversed
From the time of his fame
And still to this day 
To The King they still praise

His followers will travel
Each year to the place
Where their idol did fall victim
And death won the case
Still to this day 
They search for a sign
Reports are on going 
That he is alive 

Now the only thing left
Is house full of memories
A catalog of music
To play through the ages
But if you truly believe 
He’s alive you will see
He’s always in Memphis 
Walking the streets

*Dedicated to the King of Rock N Roll   Elvis Aaron Presley  1935-1977
