Elvis Presley
Elvis Presley is, of course, the acknowledged King of contemporary music. Whichever version of The King we choose to remember, whether it's the dynamic, gyrating upstart who took the world by storm in 1956, the charismatic and underrated actor who appeared in over 30 successful feature films or the extraordinary stage presence that was his Las Vegas live performances in the Seventies, it's clear there was and will only ever be one "King".

Ten thousand miles even though I roam
I can hear the call of the hills of home
The canyons high and the valleys low
Echo "How can you stay away"
My dreams are there where the eagle flies
Where the mountain tops seem to touch the sky
The winding streams and the winds that blow
Ask me "How can you stay away"
Far too long have I stayed apart
From this land that I love and divide my heart
Now, now I know I must go
Where the hills say "Don't stay away"
Where the hills say "Don't stay away"
I can hear the call of the hills of home
The canyons high and the valleys low
Echo "How can you stay away"
My dreams are there where the eagle flies
Where the mountain tops seem to touch the sky
The winding streams and the winds that blow
Ask me "How can you stay away"
Far too long have I stayed apart
From this land that I love and divide my heart
Now, now I know I must go
Where the hills say "Don't stay away"
Where the hills say "Don't stay away"

When I was a little bitty boy
Sittin' on my papa's knee
I still remember every word my papa said to me
"Now boy, if you ever meet
A pretty woman walking down the street
You'd better stop real still, look both ways
Listen or you'll get in trouble"
"When you see her go struttin' by
Giving you that evil eye
And she's got a kind of dreamy look"
Just enough to get you shook"
"Now boy, don't you lose your head
You pay attention what your papa said
You'd better stop real still, look both ways
Listen or you'll get in trouble"
Alright
She'll drive you crazy with the way she walks
She'll drive you crazy with the way she talks
And you'll think you're gonna lose your mind
'Cause that pretty woman looks so fine
And the very first thing you'll know
You'll be tellin' her you love her so
You'd better stop real still.

Ive been standing on a corner
Since a quarter after seven
I was down to my last cigarette
And the clock in the window
At a quarter to eleven
I was watching all the people
Passing by me going places
Just the loneliest guy in the town
Looking for a friendly smile
But all I see were faces
And then, just like the taste of milk and honey
I found the stranger Ive been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
The love that comes on the corner
At a quarter to eleven
I thought you were to good to be true
All my life I had believed
That angels only live in heaven
But now, we share the taste of milk and honey
Each day is sweeter than the day before
My cup runned overflowing
Because the stranger in the crowd
And I would be stranger no more
Deep inside, my cup of love was overflowing
I found the stranger Ive been looking for
Like a wave, my cup of love was overflowing
I knew the stranger in the crowd

Summer kisses, Winter tears
That was what she gave to me
Never thought that I'd travel all alone
The trail of memories
Happy hours, lonely years
But I guess I can't complain
For I still recall the Summer sun
Through all the Winter rain
The fire of love, the fire of love
Can burn from afar
And nothing can light the dark of the night
Like a falling star
Summer kisses, Winter tears
Like the stars they fade away
Leaving me to spend my lonely nights
With dreams of yesterday
The fire of love, the fire of love
Can burn from afar
And nothing can light the dark of the night

Every time you kiss me I'm still not certain that you love me

Do you speak the same words to someone else when I'm not there.
Suspicion torments my heart,
Suspicion keeps us apart,
Suspicion why torture me.

These long lonely evenings
Here I am on the phone wondering if she will call
She said she would write me 'cause she knows I'm alone
But I hear nothing at all
I'm waiting for a word of love from Sylvia
You think she'd never heard of love my Sylvia
But when I'm with her Lord, I forgive her
'Cause she's more than the whole world to me
There's nothing like a word of love from Sylvia
The only one I'm thinking of is Sylvia
Feeling so sad now, I'll be so glad now
If I just had my Sylvia with me
That old weeping willow seems to whisper her name
Why did she go away
The tears on my pillow they're not hard to explain
There's nothing else I can say
I'm waiting for a word of love from Sylvia
You think she'd never heard of love my Sylvia
But when I'm with her Lord, I forgive her

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand

Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
When my way grows drear
Precious Lord linger near
When my life is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call
Hold my hand lest I fall
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
When the darkness appears
And the night draws near
And the day is past and gone
At the river I stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home
Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand

I can't conceal the tender feeling
Now that you are close to me
I look at you with tender feeling
And can't help kiss you tenderly
I offer you a true devotion
All life through my love, I vow
For this is real, this sweet emotion
This tender feeling I have now
Somehow I knew from the moment our lips first met
You'd be the girl I could never forget
No other love could be appealing
I loved you right from the start
And with each kiss, I'll keep revealing
The tender feeling in my heart.

Pedro the bull was a killer
King of the bullfight arena
He'd wipe up the floor with each brave matador
And have matador stew for his dinner
He heard the crowd shouting "Ole"
But he met his master that day
The bullfighter was a lady
And it was true love at first sight
Her red cape was waving but Pedro was shaving
He wanted to date her that night
Ole
Pedro the bull he was smitten
First time the love bug had bitten
He once was a mad bull, a wild and a bad bull
But now he was mild as a kitten
The people were starting to hiss
But Pedro just wanted to kiss
The bullfighter was a lady
And Pedro he liked what he saw
He floated on air with a rose in his hair
As he waltzed with that sweet matador
His fate was a bad one, his tale is a sad one
It's hanging right over her door

The reach the unreachable star
This is my quest, to follow that star

To be willing to march into hell

And I know if I'll only be true

That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this
That one man scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable star.

She loves me, she loves me, she loves me
The lady loves me and it shows
In spite of the way she turns up her nose
I'm her ideal, her hearts desire
Under that ice she's burning like fire
She'd like to cuddle up to me
She's playing hard to get
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
The gentleman has savoir-faire
As much as an elephant or a bear
I'd like to take him for a spin
Back to the zoo to visit his kin

The lady loathes him but he doesn't know it yet
The lady's got a crush on me

Yesterday, I slipped away
The sun is welcoming the evening shadows
On a perfect day and the next step is love
The next step is love
We walked barefoot through the misty meadows
Laughing at each other in the rain
Made some faces at some people in the park
Didn't bother to explain
Fun, fun, look at us run
Going nowhere special really fast
But we've yet to taste the icing on the cake
That we've been baking with the past
And the next step is love
So what are we waiting for?
The next step is love
Girl, it's for sure
Love will be a place to run to
From the world they've built to you and me
We'll be closer than we've ever been
Though looking back it's so hard to believe
Hang it all out or bring it all in
The best we've picked upon the way tonight
Changes are coming but together
We can make it through somehow
Yes the next step is love
The sun is welcoming the evening shadows
On a perfect day and the next step is love
The next step is love
We walked barefoot through the misty meadows
Laughing at each other in the rain
Made some faces at some people in the park
Didn't bother to explain
Fun, fun, look at us run
Going nowhere special really fast
But we've yet to taste the icing on the cake
That we've been baking with the past
And the next step is love
So what are we waiting for?
The next step is love
Girl, it's for sure
Love will be a place to run to
From the world they've built to you and me
We'll be closer than we've ever been
Though looking back it's so hard to believe
Hang it all out or bring it all in
The best we've picked upon the way tonight
Changes are coming but together
We can make it through somehow
Yes the next step is love

The clock by the bed is ticking too loud in the quiet night
I lie in the darkness thinking I must go before it's light
Before you open up your eyes and you beg me to stay
I'll leave 'cause I can't stand to see you hurt this way
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Though I knew the time was coming and our love would end somehow
I just couldn't bear to tell you exactly just when or how
I know we can't go on, that it was wrong to start
But if you wake up crying now, you know you'll break my heart
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Sleep my love as I kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Ohhhh, Sleep my love as I kiss you, kiss you, kiss you goodbye
Then I won't hear the sound of your cry
Ohhhh, Sleep my love as I kiss you.
I lie in the darkness thinking I must go before it's light

I have wished for the wealth
Of a great millionaire
I have reached for a bright star above
But the thrill of it all
To me seems so small
When compared to the thrill of your love
I'd rather give everything
That I own in this world
Than to be all alone and unloved
For no earthly price and no sacrifice
Is too much to give
For your love
I'd rather give everything
That I own in this world
Than to be all alone and unloved
For no earthly price and no sacrifice
Is too much to give
For your love
Of a great millionaire
I have reached for a bright star above
But the thrill of it all
To me seems so small
When compared to the thrill of your love
I'd rather give everything
That I own in this world
Than to be all alone and unloved
For no earthly price and no sacrifice

I'd rather give everything

For no earthly price and no sacrifice

The walls have ears, ears that hear each little sound you make
Every time you stamp throw a lamp and every cup and dish you break
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on baby, don't fight tonight
The walls have ears, better think before you fling that shoe
If you part my hair with a chair, they'll spread the news to Timbuktu
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on baby, don't fight tonight
Jets can fly, fast and high, rockets can go even faster
But they can't catch or even match sound traveling through plaster
The walls have ears, ears that hear each little sound you make
Every time you stamp throw a lamp and every cup and dish you break
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on baby, don't fight tonight
Just dim the light
Don't fight tonight.

Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
I'll remember her forever because I love her so
There are so many roses that bloom along the way
But my heart's in Amarillo and that's where it will stay
With the yellow rose of Texas so I'd better get there fast
'Cause I know I was her first love and I want to be her last
Oh the yellow rose of Texas is the only girl I love
Her eyes are even bluer than Texas skies above
Her heart's as big as Texas and wherever I may go
I'll remember her forever because I love her so
The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
The eyes of Texas are upon you 'till Gabriel blows his horn
The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn
The eyes of Texas are upon you 'till Gabriel blows his horn
The eyes of Texas are upon you all the live long day
The eyes of Texas are upon you, you cannot get away
Do not think you can escape them at night or early in the morn

When you say that's it boy
I'm finally beat
You're goin' ninety miles an hour
Down a dead end street
You don't want to fight no more
You think that you can't win
Come on boy take a real deep breath
Jump right in and
Hold your head up high
Oh, you gotta be strong, yeah
(You gotta be strong, you gotta be strong)
Come on and sing, sing, sing
There ain't nothing like a song
Now they may take away your job
Take your fancy car
They may repossess your clothes
Take that fine guitar
They may take everything you own
Well, that's just for today
As long as you've got a song in your heart
Tomorrow's gonna be okay
Hold your head up high
Oh, you gotta be strong, yeah
(You gotta be strong, you gotta be strong)
Come on and sing, sing, sing
There ain't nothing like a song, all right
There ain't nothing gonna stop you
Once you've set your mind
The only people gonna knock you
Are jealous of what they find
Just keep a smile right on your face
Don't let 'em get you down
When you wake up tomorrow
The world is spinnin' round
Hold your head up high, hey, hey, hey
You gotta be strong, all right
(You gotta be strong, you gotta be strong)
Come on and sing, sing, sing
There ain't nothing like a song
Well, lovin's all that I can give you
Baby, that's enough
You ain't easy to satisfy
Baby, I ain't that tough
Now hey, little girl
You're about the wildest thing I've ever seen
When I'm with you, baby
I'm a lovin' machine
Come on and kiss me, honey
Oh, you gotta be strong, hey you gotta be strong
(You gotta be strong, you gotta be strong)
Come on and sing, sing
There ain't nothing like a song
Come on and sing, sing, sing
Sing, sing, sing, sing

Baby it's wrong, wrong as can be
To try and tie guy like me
I could never settle down in a little sleepy town
There is so much world to see
Sure would be happy for a while
But then we'd have to part
When tears replace your loving smile
Well, I don't want to be the guy
Who has to break your heart
So, here's where it ends, not lovers but friends
Though your lips are tempting me
Maybe I'm a fool and yet
This wanderer just can't forget
There is so much world to see
Sure would be happy for a while
But then we'd have to part
When tears replace your loving smile
Well, I don't want to be the guy
Who has to break your heart
So, here's where it ends, not lovers but friends
Though your lips are tempting me
Maybe I'm a fool and yet
This wanderer just can't forget
There is so much world to see
For me, there's so much world to see
Yeah, yeah.
