https://www.reverbnation.com/kaynemusic/song/34834597-18-miles-to-memphis-original Here is the BIAB original version of this song. I uploaded this to Suno and used their COVER BETA feature.
I indicated the style as Rock-a-Billy / 50's Rock n Roll / Elvis
I also had to enter the lyrics into the CUSTOM LYRICS area with notation like this:
[Male Vocal] [Elvis]
[Intro]
[Verse]
18 Miles to Memphis
I'm taking rock n roll on the road
Got my radio tuned to Elvis
and he's singing out his soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Got my guitar in the back seat
of my 57 Cadillac
Memphis is the reason that I'm
living with the Rhythm
and I'm never looking back
[Verse]
18 Miles to Memphis
there's a honky tonk to play that sound
A little rock and rollin
Reeling and strolling
It's to Memphis I am bound
[Pre-Chorus]
Got my blue Suede shoes
and Beale street blues
Its BB King's Hall of Fame
When I play my songs
I know it wont be long
before everyone will know my name
[Chorus]
Na na na na na
It don't get much better than that
Stars above to guide me
and a Guitar right beside me
It's to Memphis not looking back
[Verse]
When I get to Memphis
and feel the Mississippi wind on my face
I'll drive right up to the gates of Graceland
and get down on my knees and pray
[Pre-Chorus]
Gonna thank the King
for Rhythm and Blues
and giving us Rock and Roll
Then I'll take out my guitar
from the backseat of my car
and sing a song to his soul
[Chorus]
Na na na na na
And Hunk a Hunk of burnin Love
at the a Heartbreak hotel
I don't have to tell you
It's Memphis that I dream of
[Chorus]
Na na na na
From deep down in my soul
Memphis is calling
its the music that I am falling
in love with of rock and roll
[Break]
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
18 miles from Memphis
I can almost feel the heat
Beale street down to Graceland
Is sound of the southern beat
[Pre-Chorus]
Got my guitar in the back seat
of my 57 Cadillac
Memphis is the reason
that I'm living with the Rhythm
and never looking back
[Chorus]
Na na na na
from deep down in my soul
Memphis is the reason
that I'm living with the Rhythm
and I'm living on rock and roll
[Chorus]
Na na na na
from deep down in my soul
Memphis is the reason
that I'm living with the Rhythm
and I'm living on rock and roll
[Outro]
