The Ballad of Elvis Presley

He was born in mississippi on a cold and windy day ✭ and the music that he gave to us will never fade away ✭ born to sing we crowned him king he touched a billion souls ✭ his name was elvis presley the king of rock ‘n’ roll ✭ he took his band up north to nashville ✭ but they didn’t treat him well ✭ they said rockabilly music was never gonna sell ✭ it wasn’t long he proved them wrong ✭ and sold out every show ✭ cuz his name was elvis presley ✭ the king of rock ‘n’ roll ✭ forever he shall be the king ✭ forever he shall rule ✭ burnin’ like a flamin‘ star ✭ he left us moody blue ✭ moody blue ✭ he was all alone at graceland on a sunny summer day ✭ when the lord came down to memphis and carried him away ✭ but if you look in heaven’s book ✭ it’s written there in gold ✭ the name of elvis presley ✭ the king of rock ‘n’ roll ✭ his name was elvis presley the king of rock ‘n’ roll ✭ yes his name was elvis presley the king of rock ‘n’ roll
