ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING rockabilly song lyrics by Joel Sattler
Well, they try to tell me
Elvis has left the building
but I can still feel
the Holy Ghost of Rock and Roll
They try to keep on saying
Elvis has left the building
but I know events
have gotten out of control
The King has left
come and gone
but no matter what
I still hear the song
and even though he's gone
I still gotta carry on
They keep on telling me
straighten up and fly right
but I gotta keep dancing
dancing all night long
they keep on telling me
that I gotta do right
but I gotta keep dancing
even if it's wrong
Elvis had the gift
Elvis had the touch
and I gotta say thank you
thank you very much
even if the Beatles
never do reunite
Buddy Holly's flown
and Little Richard's talking dirty
they say Chuck Berry's
got ants in his pants
they say the Rolling Stones
you know them boys are purty
they say Jimi Hendrix
never had a chance
but Janis Joplin
Kurt Cobain too
Bobby Dylan
they did it all for you
and Rock will never die
but still I gotta dance!
Well they try to tell me
that Elvis has left the building
but Elvis is never gone
let me make it clear
Well they try to keep telling me
Elvis has left the building
and although it may be so
here is something weird:
all that I know
it's gotta have some soul
and if it doesn't rock
then it's gotta roll
and Elvis is in my heart
the King is always here
