Graceland Songtext
von Willie Nelson

Graceland Songtext

The Mississippi Delta
Was shining like a national guitar
I am following the river down the highway
Through the cradle of the Civil War

I′m going to Graceland
Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee
I'm going to Graceland

Poorboys 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

Poorboys 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 is 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 end
Or maybe there′s no obligations now
Maybe I've a reason to believe
We all will be received in Graceland

Oh-ooh, Graceland, Graceland
I′m going to Graceland
