ELVIS PRESLEY lyrics : "King Creole"

There's a man in New Orleans
Who plays rock and roll
He's a guitar man

With a great big soul
He lays down a beat
Like a ton of coal

He goes by the name of King Creole

You know he's gone, gone, gone

Jumpin' like a catfish on a pole
You know he's gone, gone, gone
Hip shaking King Creole


When the king starts to do it
It's as good as done

He holds his guitar
like a tommy gun
He starts to growl

From way down his throat
He bends a string
And "that's all she wrote"


Well, he sings a song about a crowded hole
He sings a song about a jelly roll

He sings a song about meat and greens
He wails some blues about New Orleans


Well, he plays something evil
Then he plays something sweet
No matter what he plays

You got to get up on your feet

When he gets the rockin' fever

baby, heaven sakes
He don't stop playin'
'Till his guitar breaks
