Intro: (4x) verse 1 I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died Just a country boy that combed his hair He put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air And he shook it like a Chorus girl And he shook it like a Harlem Queen He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby Like you never seen, like you never seen, never seen Instrumental (2x) verse 2 I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died How he took it all out of black and white Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight And he shook it like a hurricane He shook it like to make it break And he shook it like a holy roller, baby With his soul at stake, with his soul at stake, soul at stake Instrumental (2x) verse 3 I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died I was thinking that night about Elvis Day that he died, day that he died He was all alone in a long decline Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died When he shook it and it rang like silver He shook it and it shine like gold He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby And he blessed my soul, were you long with me And mentioned like a man on a fuzzy dream, a fuzzy dream, fuzzy dream Instrumental (2x) Outro And he shook it and it rang like silver And he shook it and it shined like gold He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby And he blessed my soul, yes he blessed my soul, blessed my soul (4x)
