Elvis Presley - If We Never Meet Again Lyrics

Elvis Presley - If We Never Meet Again Video

Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey
And perhaps never meet anymore
Till we gather in heaven's bright city
Far away on that beautiful shore
 
If we never meet again this side of heaven
As we struggle through this world and it's strife
There's another meeting place somewhere in heaven
By the side of the river of life
 
Where the charming roses bloom forever
And where separations come no more
If we never meet again this side of heaven
I will meet you on that beautiful shore

Elvis Presley - Blue Hawaii Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Blue Hawaii Video

Night and you
And blue Hawaii
The night is heavenly
And you are heaven to me
 
Lovely you
And blue Hawaii
With all this loveliness
There should be love
 
Come with me
While the moon is on the sea
The night is young
And so are we, so are we
 
Dreams come true
In blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you
 
Come with me
While the moon is on the sea (the moon is on the sea)
The night is young
And so are we, so are we
 
Dreams come true
In blue Hawaii
And mine could all come true
This magic night of nights with you

Elvis Presley - Proud Mary Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Proud Mary Video

Left a good job in the city
Workin' for the man every night and day
And I never lost one minute of sleeping
Worried about the way things might have been
 
A big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
 
If you come down to the river
Betcha you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'Cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
 
I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
 
If you come down to the river
Betcha you're gonna find some people who live
You don't have to worry 'Cause you have no money
People on the river are happy to give
 
I said a big wheel keeps on turnin'
Proud Mary keeps on burnin'
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river
Rollin', rollin', rollin' on a river

Elvis Presley - Moody Blue Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Moody Blue Video

Well, it's hard to be a gambler
Bettin' on the number
That changes ev'ry time
 
Well, you think you're gonna win
Think she's givin' in
A stranger's all you find
 
Yeah, it's hard to figure out
What she's all about
But she's woman through and through
 
She's a complicated lady
So color my baby moody blue
 
Oh, Moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on, try to learn the song
But I never do
 
Oh, Moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day and it's hard to say
Which one is you
 
Well, when Monday comes she's Tuesday
When Tuesday comes she's Wednesday
Into another day again
 
Her personality unwinds
Just like a ball of twine
On a spool that never ends
 
Just when I think I know her well
Her emotions reveal
She's not the person that I though I knew
 
She's a complicated lady
So color my baby moody blue
 
Oh, Moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on, try to learn the song
But I never do
 
Oh, Moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day and it's hard to say
Which one is you
 
I'm afraid of my Moody blue
 
Oh, Moody blue
Tell me who I'm talkin' to
You're like the night and day and it's hard to say
Which one is you
 
Yeah, Moody blue
Tell me am I gettin' through
I keep hangin' on, try to learn the song
But I never do
 
Let me tell you 'bout Moody blue

Elvis Presley - Suspicious Minds Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Suspicious Minds Video

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
 
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
 
So if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
 
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see the tears are real, I'm crying
(Yes, I'm crying)
 
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
 
Oh, let our love survive
I'll dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know I've never lied to you
Mmm, yeah, yeah
 
We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
 
Don't you know we're caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know we're caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know I'm caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know I'm caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know I'm caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know I'm caught in a trap?
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby
 
Don't you know I'm caught in a trap...

Elvis Presley - Where Could I Go But To The Lord Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Where Could I Go But To The Lord Video

Living below in this old sinful world
Hardly a comfort can afford
Striving alone to face temptation so
Now won't you tell me
 
Where could I go but to the Lord
Where could I go oh where could I go
Seeking the refuge for my soul
Needing a friend to save me in the end
Won't you tell me
Where could I go but to the Lord
 
Life here is grand with friends I love so dear
Comfort I get from God's own word
Yet when I face that chilling hand of death
Won't you tell me
Where could I go but to the Lord
 
Where could I go but to the Lord
Where could I go oh where could I go
Seeking the refuge for my soul
Needing a friend to save me in the end
Won't you tell me
Where could I go but to the Lord

Elvis Presley - If That Isn't Love Lyrics

Elvis Presley - If That Isn't Love Video

He left the splendor of heaven
Knowing his destiny
Was the lonely hill of Golgotha
There to lay down His life for me
 
And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly
 
Yeah, if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love (it's got to be love)
 
Even in death He remembered
The thief hanging by his side
Then He spoke of love and compassion
And He took him to paradise
 
And if that isn't love
Then the ocean is dry
There's no stars in the sky
And the little sparrows can't fly
 
Oh yeah, if that isn't love
Then heaven's a myth
There's no feeling like this
If that isn't love
It's got to be love

Elvis Presley - I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here Lyrics

Elvis Presley - I Think I'm Gonna Like It Here Video

No one's in a hurry, no one seems to worry
Why they're all so happy is very clear
Every day siesta, every night fiesta
I think I'm gonna like it here
 
All this lovely scenery, more to it than greenery
I know a chance for romance is always near
Mission bells are ringing, everybody's singing
I think I'm gonna like it hear
 
The sound of laughter from every doorway
Sweet music floating across the square
It seems to say things are going your way
Your troubles like bubbles will soon disappear in the air
 
Down to my last peso, but I'm not afraid to say so
I feel just like a brave spanish cavalier
I don't care where we go, so lead on mi amigo
I think I'm gonna like it here
 
Melodias.....lapieras
Your troubles like bubbles will soon disappear in the air
 
Down to my last peso, but I'm not afraid to say so
I feel just like a brave spanish cavalier
I don't care where we go, so lead on mi amigo
I think I'm gonna like it here
 
I think I'm gonna like it here
I think I'm gonna like it here
I think I'm gonna like it here

Elvis Presley - Puppet On A String Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Puppet On A String Video

Every time you look at me
I'm as helpless as can be
I become a puppet on a string
You can do most anything to me
 
All you do is touch my hand
And your wish is my command
I become a puppet on a string
You can do most anything to me
 
If you really love me
Darling please be kind
I offer you the truest love
That you will ever find
 
Take my heart and please be fair
Handle it with loving care
For I'm just a puppet on a string
You can do most anything with me
 
If you really love me
Darling please be kind
I offer you the truest love
That you will ever find
 
Take my heart and please be fair
Handle it with loving care
For I'm just a puppet on a string
You can do most anything to me
You can do most anything with me

Elvis Presley - Promised Land Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Promised Land Video

Aw, get on it
 
I left my home in Norfolk, Virginia
California on my mind
I straddled that Greyhound and rode him into Raleigh
And on across Caroline
 
We had motor trouble that turned into a struggle
Halfway across Alabam'
Well, that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham
 
Right away I bought me a through train ticket
Right across Mississippi clean
I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smokin' into New Orleans
 
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town
There are people there who care a little about me
And they won't let the poor boy down
 
Take it
 
Sure as you're born, they bought me a silk suit
And put luggage in my hand
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land
 
Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the Golden State
When the pilot told us in 13 minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate
 
Swing low, chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
 
Los Angeles, get me Norfolk, Virginia
Tidewater 4-1009
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy is on the line
 
Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte
Flying over to the Golden State
When the pilot told us in 13 minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate
 
Swing low, chariot, come down easy
Taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
 
Los Angeles, get me Norfolk, Virginia
Tidewater 4-1009
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy is on the line

Elvis Presley - Rubberneckin' Video

Stop, look and listen baby that's my philosophy
If your rubberneckin' baby well that's all right with me
Stop, look and listen baby that's my philosophy
It's called rubberneckin' baby but that's all right with me
Some people say I'm wasting time yeh, but they don't really know

Stop, look and listen baby that's my philosophy
If your rubberneckin' baby well that's all right with me
Stop, look and listen baby that's my philosophy

Sittin' on the back porch all by myself
Along came Mary Jane with somebody else
Well, stop, look and listen baby that's my philosophy
It's called rubberneckin' baby but that's all right with me
 
Some people say I'm wasting time yeh, but I don't really care

Elvis Presley - My Way Lyrics

Elvis Presley - My Way Video

And now the end is near
So I face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
 
I've lived a life that's full
I've traveled each and every highway
And more, much more than this
I did it my way
 
Regrets, I've had a few
But then again, too few to mention
I did what I had to do
And saw it through without exception
 
I planned each charted course
Each careful step along the byway
Oh, and more, much more than this
I did it my way
 
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you know
When I bit off more than I could chew
But through it all when there was doubt
I ate it up and spit it out
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way
 
I've loved, I've laughed and cried
I've had my fails, my share of losing
And now as tears subside
I find it all so amusing
To think I did all that
And may I say, not in a shy way
Oh, no, no not me
I did it my way
 
For what is a man, what has he got
If not himself, then he has not
To say the words he truly feels
And not the words he would reveal
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way

Welcome to my world,
Won't you come on in
Miracles, I guess
Still happen now and then
Step into my heart
Leave your cares behind
Welcome to my world
Built with you in mind
 
Knock and the door shall open
Seek and you will find
Ask and you'll be given
The key to this world of mine
 
I'll be waiting there
With my arms unfurled
Waiting just for you
Welcome to my world
Welcome to my world

Elvis Presley - Burning Love Lyrics

Elvis Presley - Burning Love Video

Lord almighty, I feel my temperature rising
Higher and higher, it's burning through to my soul
Girl, girl, girl, girl, you're gonna set me on fire
My brain is flaming, I don't know which way to go
 
Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
You light my morning sky
With burning love
 
Ooh, ooh, ooh, I feel my temperature rising
Help me, I'm flaming, I must be a hundred and nine
Burning, burning, burning, and nothing can cool me, yeah
I just might turn to smoke, but I feel fine
 
'Cause your kisses lift me higher
Like a sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning love
 
(With burning love)
 
It's coming closer, the flames are now licking my body
Won't you help me, I feel like I'm slipping away
It's hard to breathe, my chest is a-heaving
Lord have mercy, I'm burning a hole where I lay
 
Your kisses lift me higher
Like the sweet song of a choir
And you light my morning sky
With burning love
With burning love (a hunk, a hunk of burning love)
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
A hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
A hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
Just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love
I'm just a hunk, a hunk of burning love

Elvis Presley - I Can't Stop Loving You Lyrics

Elvis Presley - I Can't Stop Loving You Video

I can't stop loving you
So I've made up my mind
To live in memory
Of such an old lonesome time
 
I can't stop wanting you
It's useless to say
So I'll just live my life
In dreams of yesterday.
 
Those happy hours
That we once knew
Though long ago,
They still make me blue
 
They say that time
Heals a broken heart
But time has stood still
Since we've been apart
