Elvis Presley (excerpt From) The Jaycees Speech Lyrics

(excerpt From) The Jaycees Speech Lyrics

When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. 

I read comic books, and I was the hero of the comic book. I saw movies, and I


was the hero in the movie.So every dream I ever dreamed has come true a hundred


times. These gentlemen over there, these are the type who care, are dedicated.


You realize if it´s not possible that they might be building the kingdom,


it´s not far-fetched from reality. I´d like to say that I learned


very early in life that: 

'Without a song the day would never end

Without a song a man ain´t got a friend

Without a song the road would never bend

Without a song...'

So I keep singing a song.

Good night.

Thank you.
