Hello Debbie
Thank you for your comments on our survey. Once Elvis touches your life he stays in your heart forever. Elvis was absolutely gorgeous, so handsome with breath taking talent. He sang from his heart and it`s obvious he felt every emotion involved in the lyrics. He was an amazing showman, who loved his fans. Elvis in black, I loved him in his black leather. He was totally awesome in all his costumes though! Debbie, your choice of songs are part of my favorites too, I agree it is very hard to just have one favorite song. Debbie, I really hope you have the chance to visit his home; I believe it is an amazing feeling. I am yet to get that far as I live in Australia. But I do really love to hear from his fans about their treasured visit to his home. Good luck Debbie!
Debbie, below are the lyrics to your favorite songs. Enjoy!
Elvis Presley — In The Ghetto
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
Elvis Presley — Suspicious Minds
(words & music by Mark James)
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't see these tears are real
I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah
