The Mississippi Delta was
shining like a National guitar.
I am following the river down the

I’m going to Graceland. Graceland, Memphis, Tennessee,
I’m going to Gracland.
Poor boys and pilgrims with families
and we are going to Graceland.
My traveling companion is nine years old
He is the child of my first marriage,
But I’ve reason to believe we both will be received
In Graceland

Well, the sun gets weary
And the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says, “What’s a better thing to do?”
Well, it’s not just me
And it’s not just you
This is all around the world

[VERSE 2]
Out in the Indian Ocean somewhere
There’s a former army post
Abandoned now just like the war
And there’s no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That’s what that old army post was for

Well, the sun gets bloody
And the sun goes down
Ever since the watermelon
And the lights come up
On the black pit town
Somebody says, “What’s a better thing to do?”
Well, it’s not just me
And it’s not just you
This is all around the world

[VERSE 3]
Over the mountain
Down in the valley
Lives the former talk-show host
Far and wide his name was known
He said “There’s no doubt about it
It was the myth of fingerprints
That’s why we must learn to live alone

Oo-oooo oo-oooo oo-oo oo oo-oo Whoa, live on, live on, live on.
Oo-oooo oo-oooo oo-oo oo oo-oo Whoa, live on, live on, live on.
Oo-oooo oo-oooo oo-oo oo oo-oo Whoa, live on, live on, live on.
All Around the…
Oo-oooo oo-oooo oo-oo oo oo-oo Whoa, live on, live on, live on.
