Teddy bear (Elvis Presley)

(Let Me Be Your) TEDDY BEAR

Baby let me be, your lovin’ Teddy Bear

Put a chain around my neck, and lead me anywhere

Oh let me be (oh let him be)

Your teddy bear.

I don’t wanna be a tiger

"Cause tigers play too rough

I don’t wanna be a lion

‘Cause lions ain’t the kind that you love enough.

Just wanna be, your Teddy Bear

Put a chain around my neck and lead me anywhere

Oh let me be (oh let him be)

Your teddy bear.

Baby let me be, around you every night

Run your fingers through my hair,

And cuddle me real tight

Oh let me be (oh let him be) your teddy bear

I don’t wanna be a tiger

‘Cause tigers play too rough

I don’t wanna be a lion

‘Cause lions ain’t the kind you love enough.

Just wanna be, your teddy bear

Put a chain around my neck and lead me anywhere

Oh let me be (oh let him be) your teddy bear

Oh let me be (oh let him be) your teddy bear

I just wanna be your teddy bear.

Suspicious mind (Elvis Presley)

Suspicuous Minds

We’re caught in a trap; I can’t walk out

because I love you too much, baby.

Why can’t you see, what you’re doing to me,

when you don’t believe a word I say? 

We can’t go on together, with Suspicious Minds;

and we can’t build our dreams, on Suspicious Minds.

So, if an old friend I know, drops by to say hello,

would I still see suspicion in your eyes?

Here we go again, asking where I’ve been.

You can see these tears are real I’m crying.

 
            We can’t go on together, with Suspicious Minds;

            and we can’t build our dreams, on Suspicious Minds...

Oh, let our love survive, 

I’ll dry the tears from your eyes.

Let’s don’t let a good things die, when honey,

you know I’ve never, lied to you; Mmm, yeah, yeah!

Jailhouse rock (Elvis Presley)

JAILHOUSE ROCK

The warden threw a party in the county jail.

The prison band was there and they began to wail.

The band was jumpin’ and the joint began to swing.

You should’ve heard those knocked out jailbirds sing.

Let’s rock, everybody, let’s rock.

Everybody in the whole cell block was a dancin’ to the Jailhouse Rock.

Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone,

Little Joe was blowin’ 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 a dancin’ 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 a dancin’ to the Jailhouse Rock.

The sad sack was a sittin’ on a block of stone

way over in the corner weepin’ all alone.

The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don’t you be no square.

If you can’t find a partner use a wooden chair."

Let’s rock, everybody, let’s rock.

Everybody in the whole cell block was a dancin’ to the Jailhouse Rock.

Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven’s sake,

no one’s lookin’, 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 a dancin’ to the Jailhouse Rock.

In the ghetto (The vicious circle) (Elvis Presley)

In The Ghetto (The Vicious Circle)

As the snow flies

On a cold and gray Chicago mornin’

A poor little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

‘cause if there’s one thing that she don’t need

it’s another hungry mouth to feed

In the ghetto

People, don’t you understand

the child needs a helping hand

or he’ll grow to be an angry young man some day

Take a look at you and me,

are we too blind to see,

do we simply turn our heads

and look the other way

Well the world turns

and a hungry little boy with a runny nose

plays in the street as the cold wind blows

In the ghetto

And his hunger burns

so he starts to roam the streets at night

and he learns how to steal

and he learns how to fight

In the ghetto

Then one night in desperation

a young man breaks away

He buys a gun, steals a car,

tries to run, but he don’t get far

And his mama cries

As a crowd gathers ‘round an angry young man

face down in the street with a gun in his hand

In the ghetto

As her young man dies,

on a cold and grey Chicago mornin’,

another little baby child is born

In the ghetto

And his mama cries

In the ghetto

In the ghetto
