Nobody Knows I'm Elvis - Waylon Jennings
Well, I nearly got caught at a Burger King
And a couple of times on a plane
I thought I was safe from detection
With all of the weight I had gained.
But walking around in a jumpsuit
That didn't work worth a damn
So I bought me some Levi's and grew me a beard
And you'll never guess who I am.
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me
After all of my tries I've got the perfect disguise
And I'm who I want to be
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me.
Bet you thought I was ol' Waylon
With all of my rugged good looks
Swagger and walk, body and soul
I bet he had what it took.
I've always envied his singing
The way he played a guitar
Black vest and hat, that's where it's at
That's what I call a star.
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me
After all of my tries I've got the perfect disguise
And I'm who I want to be
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me.
I want to show you Graceland
Baby, that's where you ought to be
I'll give you a call but let's keep it all
Somewhere between you and me.
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me
After all of my tries I've got the perfect disguise
And I'm who I want to be
Nobody knows I'm Elvis, nobody knows this is me...
