Jesus Mentioned Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm going down to Memphis
Memphis, Tennessee
I'm going down to Graceland
Thinking about the King
Remembering him sing
'Bout those heavenly mansions
Jesus mentioned
[Verse 2]
Can't you just imagine
Digging up the King?
Begging him to sing
'Bout those heavenly mansions
Jesus mentioned
[Bridge]
He went walking on the water
He went walking on the water
He went walking on the water
With his pills
[Verse 3]
Can't you just imagine
Digging up the King?
Begging him to sing
'Bout those heavenly mansions
