Graceland Lyrics by Dan Bern

Fleeting Days

0

[Intro]
Mississippi Delta shining like a National guitar
Paul Simon wrote that song about Graceland while driving in his car
Marc Cohn wrote that other one
It was a big hit it made Marc Cohn real
I'm walking in Memphis do I really feel the way I feel?

Ready boys?
Ready

[Chorus]
Well look at me Lord I am at Graceland
On a Saturday afternoon
I threw up last night at a rest stop
From eating cheese grits at the Waffle House
I felt like hell then, I feel all right now
I am at Graceland and I feel all right

[Verse 1]
I know that Graceland has sacred meaning
Deep, deep meaning for lots of people
For me it don't mean all that much
Okemah means more, that's Woody Guthrie's home
I don't have shrines to Elvis Presley
On the dashboard of my RV
I haven't spotted Elvis lately
In the tool section of the Wal-Mart
But I travel around the country
Playing my guitar for whoever will listen
So I'm at Graceland
Yes, I'm at Graceland
I am at Graceland and I feel all right

[Bridge]
He had the coolest shoes
He had the coolest hair
He sang the coolest songs
He made the coolest movies
He moved his hips like wheat fields waving
He was even cool in the army

[Verse 2]
One for the money
Two for the show
Three to get ready
Now, go, cat, go
You ain't nothing but a hound dog
Crying, crying, all the time
Since my baby left me, the place I dwell
End of Lonely Street, Heartbreak Hotel
Return to sender, address unknown
No such number, no such zone

That's all right, mama, that's all right with me
That's all right, mama, any old way you please
That's all right
That's all right now, mama, any old way you please

[Chorus]
Well look at me Lord I am at Graceland
On a Saturday afternoon
I threw up last night at a rest stop
From eating cheese grits at the Waffle House
I felt like hell then, I feel all right now
I am at Graceland and I feel all right

[Outro]
Look at me Lord
Look at me Lord
On a Saturday afternoon
I am at Graceland
I am at Graceland
On a Saturday afternoon
Look at me Lord
I am at Graceland
On a Saturday afternoon
Look at me Lord
I am at Graceland
I am at Graceland and I feel all right
