And if I was the President, (was the President)
And if'n the Congress called my name (was the President)

Peace like a river ran through the city
Long past the midnight curfew
We sat starry-eyed We were satisfied...
You can beat us with wires You can beat us with chains
You can run out your rules
But you know you can't outrun the history train

I'm going to Graceland, Graceland,
Memphis, Tennessee,
Well, I'm going to Graceland.
Poor boys and pilgrims with families
And we are going to Graceland,
And my travelling companion is nine years old,

But I've reason to believe
We both will be received in Graceland.
