Elvis Imitators |
| -- Spoken: |
| «Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen. |
| I’d like to do this next song |
| especially for you. |
| And for the King.» |
| Well… |
| I walk up to the mike and and then I shake my hips |
| I take a deep breath and put a snare on my lips |
| See me on the street you wouldn’t know my name |
| But imitating Elvis is my claim to fame |
| So when you put my imitation name in lights |
| There’ll be imitation good rockin' tonight |
| Cuz I’m an an Elvis imitator and I just can’t stop |
| Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top |
| Imitate the way he talked, the way he smiled |
| I throw away my scarf and make the crowd go wild |
| This imitation Elvis may not be the King |
| But baby I’m the next best thing |
| Singing Viva Las Vegas and the G.I. |
| Blues |
| Won’t you Love Me Tender in my Blue Suede Shoes |
| Well let me be your teddy bear, if you must |
| Oh baby Please Surrender, 'cause I need your touch |
| Well if you feelin' lonely, need a place to dwell |
| Come on down to imitation heartbreak hotel |
| We’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Yeah my gold lamee cape and my sequined suit |
| Pompadou haircut and my high-heeled boots |
| Imitating Elvis is the only way |
| I can make it through my imitation day |
| I know this rocking music can’t be denied |
| 'Cause I was imitating him before he died |
| Well I’m an an Elvis imitator and I just can’t stop |
| Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top |
| I imitate the way he walked, the way he smiled |
| I throw away my scarf and make the crowd go wild |
| This imitation Elvis may not be the king |
| But baby I’m the next best thing |
| Yeah rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Ooooh we’re gonna rock (rock rock rock) |
| Well baby … it’s the next … best thing |
| -- Spoken: |
| Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen |
