Elvis Be True Lyrics

Elvis Be True

Everyone's talking about Elvis
 Cause it seems like a thing that we do
 Elvis is walking round listlessly
 Seems he can't even die if he wanted to

 It's a bad business to be in
 You don't get thanked and you don't get paid
 It's a hard world to be in with and to end with
 And to think about leaving behind

 Examining the body in Memphis
 Waiting five hours to get into Graceland
 Is this anybody's idea of a good time or a good joke
 Airport biographies are usually true

 The fame and fortune took it's toll
 He's not the king of rock and roll anymore
 He's just a junkie redneck

 Pull a sheet over your head
 Fold your arms across your chest
 Lie back in bed
 You can call from Wisconsin tomorrow

 Everyone's talking about Elvis
 Cause it seems like a thing that we do
 Elvis is living too fat and slow now to care
 What we say about him

 Picking up hitch hiking Elvises
 Presenting babies at the foot of his grave
 He was watching TV and laughing to himself
 He just had to tell someone how he did it

 Elvis be good to me
 Elvis be true
 Elvis I love you
 Elvis be true
 Elvis be near me
 El
Elvis come back to me
 Please Elvis be kind

 Everything's coming up roses
 Everything's coming up Elvis
 Everything's coming up roses
 Everything's coming up Elvis

 Elvis Elvis Elvis be true
