Blue Suede Shoes and Love Me Tender
Elvis songs I still remember
Dad brought home the coolest records
I memorized them all
Even now
When I’m down and feeling bad
I can sing
And I think about my Dad

He taught me that life is precious
God will be my only witness
Right and wrong I know the difference
I learned my lessons well
And I don’t know
If I told him how I feel
Though he’s gone
I can tell him when I sing

Chorus:
I’ve got a dollar bill in my pocket
I get a couple of pints a day
And I’ve got everything I need to get me by
In a traditional toast of friendship
We’d like to thank you once again
The King and I
The King and I

Please accept my fondest gratitude
For the guidance that you gave
You and Elvis taught me everything
And I figured out the rest along the way

Full of pride
And a heart as good as gold
Always there
With the greatest love of all

CHORUS
