The Mississippi Delta was shining like a National guitar I am following the river down the highway through the cradle of the Civil War Well, I'm going to Graceland, Graceland in Memphis Tennessee I'm going to Graceland Poor boys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland My traveling companion is nine years old The child of my first marriage But I've reason to believe, we both will be received in Graceland She comes back to tell me, she's gone As if I didn't know that, as if I didn't know my own bed As if I'd never noticed the way she brushed her hair from her forehead And she said losing love is like a window in your heart Everybody sees you're blown apart, everybody feels the wind blow I'm going to Graceland, in Memphis Tennessee I'm going to Graceland Poor boys and pilgrims with families and we are going to Graceland My traveling companions are ghosts And empty sockets ghosts and empties But I've reason to believe, we all will be received in Graceland There is a girl in Austin Texas and she calls herself the human trampoline Sometimes when I'm falling flying tumbling in turmoil I say this is what she means, she means we're bouncing into Graceland And I see losing love and like a window in your heart Everybody sees you're blown apart, everybody feels the wind blow And I'm going to Graceland in Memphis Tennessee I'm going to Graceland For reasons I cannot explain some part of me wants to see Graceland And I may be obliged to defend every love and every ending Or maybe there's no obligations now Maybe I've a reason to believe, we all will be received in Graceland Oh oh, Graceland, Graceland, I'm going to Graceland
