0:09I was thinking that night about Elvis
0:15Day that he died day that he died
0:22I was thinking that night about Elvis
0:28Day that he died day that he died
0:34Just a country boy that combed his hair
0:41And put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air
0:47And he shook it like a chorus girl
0:53And he shook it like a Harlem queen
1:00He shook it like a midnight rebel baby
1:06Like you never seen
1:09Like you never seen
1:12Never seen
1:15I was thinking that night about Elvis
1:21Day that he died day that he died
1:27I was thinking that night about Elvis
1:33Day that he died day that he died
1:40How he took it all out of black and white
1:47Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight
1:52And he shook it like a hurricane
1:59He shook it like to make it break
2:05And he shook it like a holy roller baby
2:11With his soul at stake
2:14With his soul at stake
2:17Soul at stake
2:21I was thinking that night about Elvis
2:27Day that he died day that he died
2:33I was thinking that night about Elvis
2:39Day that he died day that he died
2:46He was all alone in a long decline
2:52Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died
2:58When he shook it and he rang like silver
3:05He shook it and he shine like gold
3:12He shook it and he beat that steam drill baby
3:18Well bless my soul
3:21Well bless my soul
3:25He shook it and he beat that steam drill baby
3:31Well bless my soul what's wrong with me
3:38I was thinking that night about Elvis
3:43Day that he died day that he died
3:50I was thinking that night about Elvis
3:56Day that he died day that he died
4:02Just a country boy that combed his hair
4:09Put on a shirt his mother made and he went on the air
4:15And he shook it like a chorus girl
4:22He shook it like a Harlem queen
4:28He shook it like a midnight rebel baby
4:34Like he never seen
4:38Never seen
4:40Like he never seen
4:44Never 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 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 rebel baby Like you never seen Like you never seen 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 With his soul at stake 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 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 rebel baby Like he never seen Never seen Like he never seen Never seen
