Ready Teddy - Elvis Presley (1956 live) (with lyrics)



(Lyrics)

Ready, set, go man go
I got a gal that I love so

I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy to
Rock'n'roll

Going down to the corner
Pick up my sweetie pie
She's my rock'n'roll baby
She's the apple of my eye, 'cause

I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy to
Rock'n'roll

Flat top cats and the dungaree dolls
Are headed for the gym to the sock hop ball
The joint is really jumping
The cats are going wild
The music really sends me
I dig that crazy style 'cause

I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy to
Rock'n'roll

Gonna kick off my shoes
Roll up my faded jeans
Grab my rock'n'roll baby
Pour on the steam
I shuffle to the left
I shuffle to the right
I'm gonna rock'n'roll
Till the early early night 'cause

I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy teddy
I'm rea-dy, rea-dy, rea-dy to
Rock'n'roll

Old Shep - Elvis Presley (1956) (with lyrics)






(Lyrics)

When I was a lad
And old Shep was a pup
Over hills and meadows we'd stray
Just a boy and his dog
We were both full of fun
We grew up together that way

I remember the time at the old swimmin' hold
When I would have drowned beyond doubt
But old Shep was right there
To the rescue he came
He jumped in and then pulled me out

As the years fast did roll
Old Shep he grew old
His eyes were fast growing dim
And one day the doctor looked at me and said
I can do no more for him Jim

With hands that were trembling
I picked up my gun
And aimed it at Shep's faithful head
I just couldn't do it
I wanted to run
I wish they would shoot me instead

He came to my side
And looked up at me
And laid his old head on my knee
I had struck the best friend that a man ever had
I cried, so I scarcely could see

Old Shep he has gone
Where the good doggies go
And no more with old Shep will I roam
But if dogs have a heaven
There's one thing I know
Old Shep has a wonderful home

Release me - Elvis Presley (1972) live (with lyrics)

Live in Greensboro Coliseum N.C 14th April 1972.





Recorded in 1970



(Lyrics)

Oh, please release me, let me go
For I just don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again

Oh, I have found a new love dear
And I will always want her near
Her lips are warm while yours are cold
Oh, oh,oh,  release me, my darling let me go

Oh, please release me, let me go
For I just don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Oh, oh, oh, release me and let me love again


Oh, please release me, let me go
For I just don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
Release me and let me love again 

Let me go, oh, release me, my darling
Let me go

There goes my everything - Elvis Presley (1970) (with lyrics)




From "Elvis: That's the way it is", 1970 in Vegas.


(Lyrics)

There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

I hear footsteps slowly walking
As they gently walk across the lonely floor
And a voice is softly saying
Darling this will be goodbye for evermore

There goes my reason for living
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
There goes my everything

As my memory turns back the pages
I can see the happy years we've had before
Now the love that kept this old heart beating
Has been shattered by the closing of the door


There goes my reason for living
There goes the one of my dreams
There goes my only possession
There goes my everything 

There goes my only possession
There goes my everything 

Suspicious minds - Elvis Presley (1969) (with lyrics)





From "Elvis: That's the way it is" - 1970


(Lyrics)

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say

We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes

Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying

We can't go on together
With suspicious minds (suspicious minds)
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds

Oh, let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die

When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mm mm, yeah, yeah

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say

Don't you know

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby

Don't you know

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby


Don't you know

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby...
