Karaoké Galway to Graceland Derek Ryan

She was dressed in the dark and she whispered amen

She was pretty in pink like a young girl again

Twenty years married and she never thought twice

She sneaked out the door and walked into the night

And silver wings carried her over the sea

From the west coast of Ireland to west Tennessee

To be with her sweetheart she left everything

She came from Galway to

Graceland to be with the king

She was humming suspicion that's the song she liked best

She had Elvis I love you tattooed on her breast

When they landed in Memphis well her heart beat so fast

She'd dreamed for so long now she'd see him at last

She was down by his graveside day after day

Come closing time they would pull her away

Ah to be with her sweetheart oh she'd left everything

She came from Galway to

Graceland to be with the king

Ah they came in their thousands from the whole human race

To pay their respects at his last resting place

But blindly she knelt there and she told him her dreams

And she thought that he answered or that's how it seems

Then they dragged her away it was handcuffs this time

She said my good man are you out of your mind?

Don't you know that we're married? see I'm wearing his ring

She came from Galway to

Graceland to be with the king

I've come from

Galway to Graceland to be with the king
