Bringin' Out the Elvis - Faith Hill



You're bringing out the Elvis in me
You're bringing out the Elvis in me

Just like a fossil
Frozen in time I could not move
My heart, my soul, my feet
Then you unearthed me
And put me in a hot pulsating groove
Now I'm a slave to the beat

You're bringing out the Elvis in me
Making my hips want to swing
You bring out the Elvis in me
Making me burst out and sing

When I'm with you
I never have to feel like a sardine
In a little metal can
I'm more like a wild shark
That travels in a pink limosuine, yeah
Yeah, together with my fans

You're bringing out the Elvis in me
Making my hips want to swing
You bring out the Elvis in me
Making me burst out and sing, oh yeah

People think I'm a silly fool
Because I think you are so nice and cool
And some people say
You're so square
But I don't care
You're bringing out the Elvis in me
You're bringing out the Elvis in me

You're bringing out the Elvis in me
Making my hips want to swing
You bring out the Elvis in me
Making me burst out and sing
You're bringing out the Elvis in me

Elton John - "Porch Swing In Tupelo"



There's a porch swing in Tupelo
In the shade of the south
Where the sweet honey drips off that old hush-yo'-mouth
It's a slow road on down
That old Natchez Trace
Through Alabama cotton fields to a state of grace
It's a crisp golden Autumn
On the Tennessee line
Rolling down to Mississippi like you headed back in time
Town's closed on Sunday
Everybody's in church
It's empty as the moon this place here on earth

And this place don't change
Some places move slow
I'm just rocking myself on this porch swing in Tupelo
I got nothing to do 'cept hang in the breeze
Ghosts of the old south are all around me
Yea swing high, yea swing low
Here on this porch swing in Tupelo

His mama must have loved him
That truck drivin' boy
With the grease monkey look and the rock 'n roll voice
Well I was just thinkin' 'bout him
'Cause I guess he sat here
Singing all praise to God through poverty's tears

And this place don't change
Some places move slow
I'm just rocking myself on this porch swing in Tupelo
I got nothing to do 'cept hang in the breeze
Ghosts of the old south are all around me
Yea swing high, yea swing low
Here on this porch swing in Tupelo

And this place don't change
Some places move slow
I'm just rocking' myself on this porch swing in Tupelo
I got nothing to do 'cept hang in the breeze
Ghosts of the old south are all around me
Yea swing high, yea swing low
Here on this porch swing in Tupelo

And this place don't change
Some places move slow
I'm just rocking' myself on this porch swing in Tupelo
I got nothing to do but hang in the breeze
The ghosts of the old south all around me
Yea swing high, yea swing low
On this porch swing in Tupelo

Here on this porch swing in Tupelo

Here on this porch swing in Tupelo

Patti Scialfa - Looking for Elvis




Dal nuovo albo "Play It As It Lays"
appena trovo il testo, lo aggiungerò!

Ecco il testo della canzone: :-\

Warm black asphalt
South of nowhere
I'm going there under a dirty cotton sky
When the rain comes round
I roll my window down
I lift my face to heaven
And wash these tears from my eyes

I'm just looking for some inspiration
I'm looking for something to rock my soul
I'm looking for a brand new destination
I'm looking for Elvis down a Memphis road
I'm looking for Elvis

I remember...
All those Septembers
The pledges of allegiance
The prayers of trust
I slept on those beds of hope and promise
Woke up choking on cheap paint and carnival dust

So where are you now
With all those illusions
Fallen dreams and charity
If faith restores you
And truth delivers
Then don't tell me that I'm standing
When I'm on my knees

I'm just looking for some inspiration
I'm looking for something to rock my soul
I'm looking for a brand new destination
I'm looking for Elvis down a Memphis road
I'm looking for Elvis
I'm looking for Elvis down a Memphis road
I'm looking for Elvis

You've got to give yourself over now
Roll like a river stone
There's mud in the water
There's gravel in the dust

You've got to work a little harder
Sing a little stronger
Stand up and deliver
If you want my trust

West of Babylon
East of Eden
I'm breathing in these winds of change
I'm going to rise up from these ashes
Gonna rise up and find the truth again

I'm just looking for some inspiration
I'm looking for love to soothe my soul
I'm at the crossroads of my destination and
I'm looking for Elvis down a Memphis road
I'm looking for Elvis
I'm looking for Elvis down a Memphis road
I'm looking for Elvis

As The Strippers,
Flyin through The Valley,
Is That Friend in Memory We Made,
Is A True Friend we have Lost,

WE REMEMBER THE KING.
WE REMEMBER,WE REMEMBER THE KING
WE RECALL,WE RECALL EVERYTHING,
WE WILL TRESAURE ALL OF THE GIFTS,
THAT HE DID BRING
WE REMEMBER THE KING.

Elvis Presley Blues - Gillian Welch



I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
Just a country boy that combed his hair
And put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air
And he shook it like a chorus girl
And he shook it like a Harlem queen
He shook it like a midnight rambler,
baby,
Like you never seen

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
How he took it all out of black and white
Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight
And he shook it like a hurricane
He shook it like to make it break
And he shook it like a holy roller, baby
With his soul at stake

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
He was all alone in a long decline
Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died
When he shook it and he rang like silver
He shook it and he shine like gold
He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well bless my soul

He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
Well bless my soul, what's wrong with me?

I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
I was thinking that night about Elvis
Day that he died, day that he died
Just a country boy that combed his hair
Put on a shirt his mother made and he went on the air
And he shook it like a chorus girl
He shook it like a Harlem queen
He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
Like he never seen

From Graceland to the Promised Land - Merle Haggard





From the sun years of the Fifties and the birth of rock and roll,
Millions screamed to see him do his thing.
Elvis touched the life of ev'ry ear that heard him,
And they couldn't help but listen when he sang.

It's a long way from Memphis to that mansion in the sky,
But he kept his faith in Jesus all along,
It's a long way from Graceland across Jordan to the Promised Land,
But Jesus fin'ly came to lead him home.

Why Can't They Leave Him Alone - Richard Atkins



You pick up the paper there's another expose.
And the man ain't here to defend himself.
It's a crime to treat him this way.

There's would be lovers and fair weather friends,
and their tales grow more bizarre.

These were the ones,
who walked
in the wake of a star.

He gave a whole lot of people,
a whole lot of pleasure.

He's gone, but his name lives on forever
and The Jesters who once played around his throne.
They're trying to make a dollar on their own.
Why?! Can't they leave him alone.

One King dies another claims the crown.
But no one had the fire to
lift the scepter he laid down.

He was the first, one and only,
never more to be.

Forever, he will live in memory.

He gave a whole lot of people
a whole lot pleasure.

He's gone but his name lives on forever.
And The Jesters, who once played around his throne.
They're trying to make a dollar on their own.
Why!? Can't They Leave him alone.

He sang Love Me Tender, Love Me True.
He gave them motorcycles,
cadilliacs and diamonds too.

Their life dropped, when his heartbeat stopped.
And now they slander while he sleeps.

In the Memphis night, Graceland weeps.
He gave a whole lot of
people a whole lot of pleasure,
he's gone but his name lives on forever.

And The Jesters, who once played around his throne.
They're trying to make a dollar on their own.

Non so se sia vero, ma ho letto che Bono abbia definito questo suo brano come reazione e libera espressione della sua totale disapprovazione nei confronti di Albert Goldman, in merito alla biografia che scrisse su Elvis, dove il quadro che da di Elvis è quanto di più screditante ci possa essere.

U2 - Elvis Presley And America cover




Black flash over my own love tell me of my eyes
Black flash come though my own life
Telling these things and I believe them and I believe in you


White flash sees the sky and it turns its side from you
She won't turn my back and I know you turn so blue
And you know and your sky is feeling blue
And your heart so cold when I'm with you
And you feel like no one told you to
And your time is outside and your time
Ah, don't talk to me ah, don't talk to me don't talk to me

You know like no one told you how
But you know though the king that has howled
But you feel like sentimental
But you don't care if I just share it in your heart

Hopelessly, so hopelessly
I'm breaking through for you and me
And you don't though no one told you to
And you found out

Where you were going, where to you're through with me
But I know that you will be back for more
And you know and though no one told you so
And you know, blue sky like a harder shade of blue
And you walk when you want to let go
Me, I'm on the outside, tell me fade away
Drop me down but don't break me in your sleep

In your sleep, inside it's in your heart and mine
Whole sea is dark it's in your heart and mine
Sweetly, those will come loving is on your side walking through
So, let me in your heart your beat is like something

They run
See say you're sad and reach by
So say you're sad above beside
Oh stay sad above beside
So stay sad above we said

You know I don't no one told you how
And you wipe sweat off your white brow
And you care and no one told you tried
And your heart is left out from the side

And the rain beats down
And the shame goes down
And this rain keeps on coming down
And this sky tonight

You know S O N G, why
You're going go join to god
You know S O N G, why
Give away some him no lie
Give away some my de day no
You know and though no one told you sky
And you feel like you pretend you can
You say go, you live go live outside of me
Don't you leave don't leave out part of me
Then I can feel like I feel before like it hurt now
And I see the floor if you pick me up
