A Date With Elvis (1959)












Blue Moon Of Kentucky lyrics - Elvis Presley

Blue moon, blue moon, blue moon
Keep shining bright
Blue moon, keep on shining bright
You're gonna bring me back my baby tonight
Blue moon, keep shining bright

I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shining bright
Wish blown high
Love said goodbye

Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, I said blue moon of Kentucky, just keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue
I said blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Well, it was on one moonlight night
Stars shining bright
Wish blown high
Love said goodbye

Blue moon of Kentucky, keep on shining
Shine on the one that's gone and left me blue

Young And Beautiful lyrics - Elvis Presley

You're so young and beautiful and I love you so
Your lips so red, your eyes that shine
Shame the stars that glow
So fill these lonely arms of mine
And kiss me tenderly
Then you'll be forever young
And beautiful to me

You're so young and beautiful, you're everything I love
Your angel smile, your gentle touch
Are all I'm dreaming of
Oh take this heart I offer you
And never set me free
Then you'll be forever young
And beautiful to me

(You're So Square) Baby I Don't Care lyrics - Elvis Presley

You don't like crazy music
Don't like rocking bands
You just wanna go to a movie show
And sit there holding hands

You're so square
Baby, I don't care

You don't like hot-rod racing
Or driving late at night
You just wanna park where it's nice and dark
You just wanna hold me tight

You're so square
Baby, I don't care

You don't know any dance steps that are new
But no one else could love me like you do, do, do, do

I don't know why my heart flips
I only know it does
I wonder why I love you, babe
I guess it's just because

You're so square
Baby, I don't care

Baby, I don't care
Baby, I don't care
Baby, I don't care

I don't know why my heart flips
I only know it does
I wonder why I love you, babe
I guess it's just because

You're so square
Baby, I don't care

Baby, I don't care
Baby, I don't care, care, care, care
I don't care, care, care, care

Milkcow Blues Boogie lyrics - Elvis Presley

Oh, well, I woke up this morning
And I looked out the door
I can tell that old milk cow
By the way she lowed

(Hold it fellows, that don't move me)
(Let's get real, real gone for a change)

Well, I woke up this morning
And I looked out the door
I can tell that that old milk cow
I can tell the way she lowed

Now, if you've seen my milk cow
Please ride her on home
I ain't had no milk and butter
Since that cow's been gone

Well, I tried to treat you right
Day by day
Get out your little prayer book
Get down on your knees and pray
For you're gonna need
You're gonna need
Your loving daddy's help someday
Well, then you're gonna be sorry
For treating me this way

Oh, let's milk it!

Yeah!

Well, believe me, don't that sun
Look good going down?
Well, believe me, don't that sun
Look good going down?
Well, don't that old moon look lonesome
When your baby's not around?

Well, I tried everything to get along with you
I'm gonna tell you what I'm gonna do
I'm gonna quit my crying
I'm gonna leave you alone
If you don't believe I'm leaving
You can count the days I'm gone
I'm gonna leave
You're gonna need your loving daddy's help someday

Well, you're gonna be sorry
You treated me this way
Mm-mm...

Baby, Let's Play House lyrics - Elvis Presley

Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, b-b-b-b-b-b baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Come back, baby, I wanna play house with you

Well, you may go to college
You may go to school
You may have a pink Cadillac
But don't you be nobody's fool

Now, baby
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby
I wanna play house with you

Now listen, and I'll tell you baby
What I'm talking about
Come on back to me, little girl
So we can play some house

Now, baby
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby
I wanna play house with you
Oh, let's play house, baby

Now this is one thing, baby
That I want you to know
Come on back, and let's play a little house
And we can act like we did before

Well, baby
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby
I wanna play house with you
Hit it

Yeah

Now listen to me, baby
Try to understand
I'd rather see you dead, little girl
Than to be with another man

Now, baby
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby, come
Come back, baby, I wanna play house with you

Oh, baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, b-b-b-b-b-b baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Come back, baby, I wanna play house with you

Good Rockin' Tonight lyrics - Elvis Presley

Well, I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
Well, I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can
Tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight

I say, "Meet me in a hurry, behind the barn
Don't you be afraid, that I'll do you no harm
I want you to bring along my rocking shoes
'Cause tonight I'm gonna rock away all my blues"
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight

Well, we're gonna rock
We gonna rock
Let's rock
Come on and rock
We're gonna rock
All our blues away

Have you heard the news? Everybody's rockin' tonight
Have you heard the news? Everybody's rockin' tonight
I'm gonna hold my baby as tight as I can
Well, tonight she'll know I'm a mighty, mighty man
I heard the news, there's good rockin' tonight

Well, we're gonna rock, rock, rock, ah
Come on and rock, rock, rock
Well, rock, rock, rock, rock
Well, let's rock, rock, rock, rock
We're gonna rock all our blues away

Is It So Strange lyrics - Elvis Presley

Oh, if you tell a lie
You know that I'll forgive you
Though you say our love is just a game

And when you hear my name
You say I'm from a strange world
But is it so strange to be in love with you?

Is it so strange
That I love you more than all the world?
Is it so strange
I have no eyes for any other girl?

Oh, won't you take me back
And say that you still love me?
To waste a love like ours would be a sin

Let us kiss again
Let me hold you near
And take me from this strange world
That I'm living in

We're Gonna Move lyrics - Elvis Presley

Well, there's a leak in this old building
Yes, there's a leak in this old building
Well, there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home

We got no pane in this old window
We got no pane in this old window
We got no pane in this old window
We're gonna move to a better home

Well, there's a hole in the roof where the rain pours in
A hole in the floor where it drops right out again
Well, there's a leak in this old building
Well, there's a leak in this old building
Well, there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home

Well, there's a crack across the ceiling
Yes, there's a crack across the ceiling
Well, there's a crack across the ceiling
We're gonna find us a better home

Well, we've got a stove without a chimney
We've got a stove without a chimney
What good's a stove without a chimney?
We're gonna move to a better home

Pulling down window shades is no use at all
The kids and the neighbor can peep right through the wall
Well, there's a leak in this old building
Well, there's a leak in this old building
Well, there's a leak in this old building (Look out below)
We're gonna move to a better
Move to a better
Move to a better home

I Want To Be Free lyrics - Elvis Presley

There's no joy in my heart, only sorrow
And I'm sad as a man can be
I sit alone in the darkness of my lonely room
And this room is a prison to me

I look out my window
And what do I see?
I see a bird
Way up in a tree
I want to be free (Oh yes), free (Oh yes)
Free
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Wanna be free)

Oh, what good are my eyes? They can't see you
And my arms, they can't hold you so tight
I have two lips that are yearning
But they're no good to me
'Cause I know I can't kiss you tonight

I look out my window
And what do I see?
I see a bird
Way up in a tree
I want to be free (Oh yes), free (Oh yes)
Free
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Want to be free)
I want to be free
Like a bird in a tree (Want to be free)

I Forgot To Remember To Forget lyrics - Elvis Presley

I forgot to remember to forget her
I can't seem to get her off my mind
I thought I'd never miss her
But I found out somehow
I think about her almost all the time
The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met
But something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget

The day she went away
I made myself a promise
That I'd soon forget we ever met
Well, but something sure is wrong
'Cause I'm so blue and lonely
I forgot to remember to forget

That's All Right lyrics - Elvis Presley

Well, that's all right, mama
That's all right for you
That's all right, mama, just anyway you do
Well, that's all right, that's all right
That's all right now, mama, anyway you do

Well, Mama, she done told me
Papa done told me too
"Son, that gal you're fooling with
She ain't no good for you"
But that's all right, that's all right
That's all right now, mama, anyway you do

I'm leaving town now baby
I'm leaving town for sure
Well, then you won't be bothered with
Me hanging around your door
But that's all right, that's all right
That's all right now, mama, anyway you do

Ah da da dee dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee, dee dee dee dee
I need your lovin'
That's all right
That's all right now, mama, anyway you do

Lawdy Miss Clawdy lyrics - Elvis Presley

(originally by Lloyd Price)

Well, Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy, Miss Clawdy
Girl, you sure look good to me
But please don't excite me, baby
I know it can't be me

'Cause I give you all of my money
Yeah, but you just won't treat me right
You like to ball every morning
Don't come home till late at night

I'm going to tell, tell my mama
Lord, I swear, girl, what you've been doing to me
I'm going to tell everybody that I'm down in misery

So, bye, bye, bye, baby
Girl, I won't be coming no more
Goodbye, little darling, down the road I go

So, bye, bye, bye, baby
Girl, I won't be coming no more
Goodbye, little darling, down the road I go

Mystery Train lyrics - Elvis Presley

Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Train I ride, sixteen coaches long
Well, that long black train got my baby and gone

Train, train, coming 'round, 'round the bend
Train, train, coming 'round the bend
Well, it took my baby, but it never will again
No, not again

Train, train, coming down, down the line
Train, train, coming down the line
Well, it's bringing my baby, 'cause she's mine all, all mine
She's mine, all, all mine

Train, train, coming 'round, 'round the bend
'Round, 'round the bend
Train, train, coming 'round, 'round the bend
'Round the bend
Well, it took my baby, but it never will again
Never will again
Ooh, whoa

Playing For Keeps lyrics - Elvis Presley

I'm playing for keeps
This time it's real
And I want you to know
Exactly how I feel
I'm playing for keeps
For sure this time
And I won't be happy
Until I know you're mine

There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else
Can thrill me like you do

I'm playing for keeps
Oh, love me too
Oh, don't make me sorry
That I fell in love with you

There have been others
That could love me true
But no one else
Can thrill me like you do

I'm playing for keeps
Oh, love me too
Oh, don't make me sorry
That I fell in love with you (in love with you)

Poor Boy lyrics - Elvis Presley

They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome, and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you

Ain't got a crust, ain't got a cent
Can't buy a jug, can't pay the rent
I got a heart full of dreams and a lot of memory
And that's enough for me

They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome, and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you

Can't buy a house, can't buy a lot
Ain't got a bean, ain't got a pot
But what I got is a heart full of love and memory
And that's enough for me

They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome, and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like you

Don't have a pig, don't have a cow
I don't have a horse to pull a plow
But what I got is a heart full of love and memory
And that's enough for me

They call me poor boy, poor boy, poor boy
But I ain't lonesome, and I ain't blue
'Cause I could never be a poor boy
As long as I've got a dolly like
I've got a dolly like
I've got a dolly like you

My Baby Left Me lyrics - Elvis Presley

Yes, my baby left me
Never said a word
Was it something I done?
Something that she heard?

My baby left me
My baby left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word

Now I stand at my window
Wring my hands and cry
I hate to lose that woman
Hate to say goodbye

You know she left me
Yes, she left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word
Play the blues, boy

Baby, one of these mornings
Lord, it won't be long
You'll look for me, baby
And daddy will done gone

You know you left me
You know you left me
My baby even left me
Never said goodbye

Now I stand at my window
Wring my hands and moan
All I know is that
The one I love is gone

My baby left me
You know she left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word
Yes, my baby left me
Never said a word

I Was The One lyrics - Elvis Presley

I was the one who taught her to kiss
The way that she kisses you now
And you know the way she touches your cheek
Well, I taught her how

I was the one who taught her to cry
When she wants you under her spell
The sight of her tears drives you out of your mind
I taught her so well

And then one day
I had my love as perfect as could be
She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried
And it was all for me

I'll never know who taught her to lie
Now that it's over and done
Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one

And then one day
I had my love as perfect as could be
She lived, she loved, she laughed, she cried
And it was all for me

I'll never know who taught her to lie
Now that it's over and done
Who learned the lesson when she broke my heart?
I was the one

Shake, Rattle And Roll lyrics - Elvis Presley

Well, get out of that bed, wash your face and hands
Get out of that bed, wash your face and hands
Well, get in that kitchen, make some noise with the pots and pans

I believe it to my soul you're the devil in nylon hose
I believe it to my soul you're the devil in nylon hose
For the harder I work, the faster my money goes

Well, I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
Well, you won't do right to save your doggone soul
(Shake rattle and roll)

I'm like a one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
I'm like a one-eyed cat peeping in a seafood store
Well, I can look at you, tell you ain't no child no more

I believe you're doing me wrong, and now I know
I believe you're doing me wrong, and now I know
'Cause the harder I work, the faster my money go

Well, I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
Well, you won't do right to save your doggone soul
(Shake it again!)

I went over the hill, way down underneath
I went over the hill, way down underneath
You make me roll my eyes, and then you make me grit my teeth

Well, I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
Well, you won't do right to save your doggone soul
