The Mississippi delta[00:00:41]
Was shining like a national guitar[00:00:43]
I am following the river down the highway[00:00:49]
Through the cradle of the Civil War[00:00:52]
I'm going to Graceland Graceland[00:00:57]
In Memphis Tennessee[00:01:00]
I'm going to Graceland[00:01:01]
Poorboys and pilgrims with families[00:01:06]
And we are going to Graceland[00:01:09]
My traveling companion is nine years old[00:01:14]
He is the child of my first marriage[00:01:18]
But I've reason to believe[00:01:22]
We both will be received[00:01:24]
In Graceland[00:01:26]
She comes back to tell me she's gone[00:01:34]
As if I didn't know that[00:01:38]
As if I didn't know my own bed[00:01:40]
As if I'd never noticed[00:01:46]
The way she brushed her hair from her forehead[00:01:49]
And she said losing love[00:01:54]
Is like a window in your heart[00:01:57]
Everybody sees you're blown apart[00:02:01]
Everybody sees the wind blow[00:02:06]
I'm going to Graceland[00:02:10]
Memphis Tennessee[00:02:13]
I'm going to Graceland[00:02:14]
Poorboys and Pilgrims with families[00:02:19]
And we are going to Graceland[00:02:23]
And my traveling companions[00:02:27]
Are ghosts and empty sockets[00:02:30]
I'm looking at ghosts and empties[00:02:31]
But I've reason to believe[00:02:36]
We all will be received[00:02:37]
In Graceland[00:02:40]
There is a girl in New York City[00:02:48]
Who calls herself the human trampoline[00:02:50]
And sometimes when I'm falling flying[00:02:56]
Or tumbling in turmoil I say[00:02:59]
Whoa so this is what she means[00:03:01]
She means we're bouncing into Graceland[00:03:03]
And I see losing love[00:03:08]
Is like a window in your heart[00:03:11]
Everybody sees you're blown apart[00:03:15]
Everybody feels the wind blow[00:03:20]
In Graceland in Graceland[00:03:25]
I'm going to Graceland[00:03:28]
For reasons I cannot explain[00:03:32]
There's some part of me wants to see Graceland[00:03:35]
And I may be obliged to defend[00:03:41]
Every love every ending[00:03:43]
Or maybe there's no obligations now[00:03:45]
Maybe I've a reason to believe[00:03:49]
We all will be received[00:03:51]
In Graceland[00:03:53]
Whoa-oh-oh-oh in Graceland in Graceland in Graceland[00:04:16]
I'm going to Graceland[00:04:22]
