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.
