The warden threw a party in the county jail. The prison band was there and they began to wail. The band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing. You should've heard those knocked out jailbirds sing. Let's rock, everybody, let's rock. Everybody in the whole cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock. Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone, Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone. The drummer boy from Illinois went crash, boom, bang, the whole rhythm section was the Purple Gang. Let's rock, everybody, let's rock. Everybody in the whole cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock. Number forty-seven said to number three: "You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see. I sure would be delighted with your company, come on and do the Jailhouse Rock with me." Let's rock, everybody, let's rock. Everybody in the whole cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock. ... .. .. .... .... . . ... . . The sad sack was a sittin' on a block of stone way over in the corner weepin' all alone. The warden said, "Hey, buddy, don't you be no square. If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair." Let's rock, everybody, let's rock. Everybody in the whole cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock. Shifty Henry said to Bugs, "For Heaven's sake, no one's lookin', now's our chance to make a break." Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, "Nix nix, I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks." Let's rock, everybody, let's rock. Everybody in the whole cell block was dancin' to the Jailhouse Rock. Get Elvis Presley Ringtones! (words & music by scott davis) 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 theres one thing that she dont need Its another hungry mouth to feed In the ghetto People, dont you understand The child needs a helping hand Or hell 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 dont get far And his mama cries As a crowd gathers round an angry young man Face down on the street with a gun in his hand In the ghetto As her young man dies, On a cold and gray chicago mornin, Another little baby child is born In the ghetto (words & music by claude demetruis) Well a hard headed woman, A soft hearted man Been the cause of trouble Ever since the world began. Oh yeah, ever since the world began A hard headed woman been A thorn in the side of man. Now adam told to eve, Listen here to me, Dont you let me catch you Messin round that apple tree. Oh yeah, ever since the world began A hard headed woman been A thorn in the side of man. Now samson told delilah Loud and clear, Keep your cotton pickin fingers Out my curly hair. Oh yeah, ever since the world began A hard headed woman been A thorn in the side of man. I heard about a king Who was doin swell Till he started playing With that evil jezebel. Oh yeah, ever since the world began A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man. I got a woman, A head like a rock. If she ever went away Id cry around the clock. Oh yeah, ever since the world began A hard headed woman been A thorn in the side of man. You aint nothin but a hound dog Cryin all the time. You aint nothin but a hound dog Cryin all the time. Well, you aint never caught a rabbit And you aint no friend of mine. When they said you was high classed, Well, that was just a lie. When they said you was high classed, Well, that was just a lie. You aint never caught a rabbit And you aint no friend of mine. Well, its one for the money, Two for the show, Three to get ready, Now go, cat, go. But dont you step on my blue suede shoes. You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes. Well, you can knock me down, Step in my face, Slander my name All over the place. Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh, Honey, lay off of my shoes Dont you step on my blue suede shoes. You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes. You can burn my house, Steal my car, Drink my liquor From an old fruitjar. Do anything that you want to do, but uh-uh, Honey, lay off of my shoes Dont you step on my blue suede shoes. You can do anything but lay off of my blue suede shoes. (words & music by mark james - elvis presley) Well, its hard to be a gambler Bettin on the number That changes evry time Well, you think youre gonna win Think shes givin in A strangers all you find Yeah, its hard to figure out What shes all about That shes a woman through and through Shes a complicated lady, so color my baby moody blue, Oh, moody blue Tell me am I gettin through I keep hangin on Try to learn the song But I never do Oh, moody blue, Tell me who Im talkin to Youre like the night and day And its hard to say Which one is you. Well, when monday comes shes tuesday, When tuesday comes shes wednesday, Into another day again Her personality unwinds Just like a ball of twine On a spool that never ends Just when I think I know her well Her emotions reveal, Shes not the person that I though I knew Shes a complicated lady, so color my baby moody blue, Oh, moody blue Tell me am I gettin through I keep hangin on Try to learn the song But I never do Oh, moody blue, Tell me who Im talkin to Youre like the night and day And its hard to say Which one is you.
