Elvis Presley

Well, Lawdy, Lawdy, Lawdy, Miss Clawdy
Girl, you sure look good to me
But please don't excite me, baby
I know it can't be me

'Cause I give you all of my money
Yeah, but you just won't treat me right
You like to ball every morning
Don't come home till late at night

I'm going to tell, tell my mama
Lord, I swear, girl, what you've been doing to me
I'm going to tell everybody that I'm down in misery

So, bye, bye, bye, baby
Girl, I won't be coming no more
Goodbye, little darling, down the road I go

So, bye, bye, bye, baby
Girl, I won't be coming no more
Goodbye, little darling, down the road I go

We're going up, we're going down
We're going up, down, down, up
Any way you wanna let it roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You got me doin' what you want me
Oh, baby, what you want me to do

You got me peeping, you got me hiding
You got me peep, hide, hide, peep
Any way you wanna let it roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You got me doin' what you want me
Oh, baby, what you want me to do

Well, since my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel

Where I'll be, I'll be so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I'll be so lonely, I could die

Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in their gloom

They'll be, they'll be so lonely, baby
They'll be so lonely
They're so lonely, they could die

Now, the bellhop's tears keep flowin'
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street
They'll never, never look back

And they get so, they get so lonely, baby
Well, they are so lonely
They're so lonely, they could die

Well, now, if your baby leaves you
And you got a tale to tell
Well, just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel

Where you will be, you will be, you'll be so lonely, baby
Well, you will be lonely
You'll be so lonely, you could die

Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in their gloom

Where they get so, they get so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

Well, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

Well, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

Ahh, ahh
Ahh, ahh

Well, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
You know, they said you was high-classed
Well, that was just a lie
Yeah, you ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog
Cryin' all the time
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit
You ain't no friend of mine
(You ain't nothin' but a hound dog)

Uh, well, a-bless my soul, what's wrong with me?
I'm itchin' like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love, I'm all shook up
Mm, ooh, yeah, yeah-yay

Well, my hands are shaky, and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck?
I'm in love, I'm all shook up
Mm, ooh, yeah, yeah-yay

Well, please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I feel fine
When I'm near the girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death

When she touched my hand, what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love, I'm all shook up
Mm, ooh, yeah, yeah-yay

My tongue gets tied when I try to speak
My insides shake like a leaf on a tree
There's only one cure for this body of mine
That's to have that girl that I love so fine

She touched my hand, what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love, uh, I'm all shook up
Mm, ooh, yeah, yeah-yay

Mm, ooh, yeah, yeah
I'm all shook up

Wise men say (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Only fools rush in (ooh-ooh-ooh)
But I can't help (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Falling in love with you

Shall I stay? (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Would it be a sin (ooh-ooh-ooh)
If I can't help (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Falling in love with you?

Like a river flows (ah)
Surely to the sea (ah)
Darling, so it goes (ah)
Some things are meant to be (ah)

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help (ah-ah-ah)
Falling in love with you

Like a river flows (ah)
Surely to the sea (ah)
Darling, so it goes (ah)
Some things are meant to be (ah)

Take my hand
Take my whole life, too
For I can't help (ah)
Falling in love with you
For I can't help (ah)
Falling in love with you (ooh)

The warden threw a party in the county jail
The prison band was there, they began to wail
The band was jumping, and the joint began to swing
You shoulda heard those locked-out jailbirds sing

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone
Little Joe was blowing on the slide trombone
The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang
The whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Number forty-seven said to number three
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see
I sure would be delighted with your company
Come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Rock, rock, rock

Sad Sack was sitting on a block of stone
Way over in the corner weeping all alone
The warden said, Hey, buddy, don't you be no square
You can't find a partner, use a wooden chair

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Shifty Henry said to Bugs, For Heaven's sake
No one's looking, now's our chance to make a break
Bugsy turned to Shifty, and he said, Nix nix
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks

Let's rock, everybody, let's rock
Everybody in the whole cell block
Was dancing to the Jailhouse Rock

Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
Dancing to the Jailhouse Rock
