MIDNIGHT WITH ELVIS


(INTRO)
PLAYING WITH ELVIS, HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DREAM OF MINE
OR IS IT.....


DOWNTOWN IN MEMPHIS, IS WHERE THEY PLAY THE BLUES
BUT AT ELVIS PRESLEY’S, THEY PLAY A DIFFERENT GROOVE
IT’S CALLED ROCKABILLY, IT HAS IT’S ON SOUL
BUT WHAT HAPPENED, IS A STORY SELDOM TOLD

THEY FLEW ME IN, TO PLAY AT THE KINGS
THAT’S WHERE I LEARNED ABOUT, THE SPOOKY SCENE
EACH NIGHT AT TWELVE O’CLOCK, THE BAND WOULD START TO ROCK
AND BEFORE MY EYES, ELVIS WOULD START TO SING

THEY SAY YOU MUST BE BORN, WITH MEMPHIS IN YOUR SOUL
BEFORE YOU GET TO PLAY, WITH THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL
I GUESS HE LIKED THE LICKS, FROM MY GUITAR
CAUSE AT MIDNIGHT WITH ELVIS, WE’RE ROCKING AT THE BAR

THOUGH HARD TO SEE, YOU KNOW THAT HE’S AROUND
BUT WHAT YOU HEAR, IS PURE OLD MEMPHIS SOUND
EVEN THOUGH IT’S NOT A DREAM, SOMETIMES YOU’D LIKE TO SCREAM
THOUGH WHO’D BELIEVE, YOU’RE JAMMING WITH THE KING

THEY SAY YOU MUST BE BORN, WITH MEMPHIS IN YOUR SOUL
BEFORE YOU GET TO PLAY, WITH THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL
I GUESS HE LIKED THE LICKS, FROM MY GUITAR
CAUSE AT MIDNIGHT WITH ELVIS, WE’RE ROCKING AT THE BAR
