Gillian Welch - Elvis Presley Blues lyrics
I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 Just a country boy that combed his hair
 And put on a shirt his mother made and went on the air
 And he shook it like a chorus girl
 And he shook it like a Harlem Queen
 He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
 Like you never seen, like you never seen, never seen
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 How he took it all out of black and white
 Grabbed his wand in the other hand and he held on tight
 And he shook it like a hurricane
 He shook it like to make it break
 And he shook it like a holy roller, baby
 With his soul at stake, with his soul at stake, soul at stake

 Day that he died, day that he died
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 He was all alone in a long decline
 Thinking how happy John Henry was that he fell down and died
 When he shook it and he rang like silver
 He shook it and he shine like gold
 He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
 Well bless my soul, well bless my soul
 He shook it and he beat that steam drill, baby
 Well bless my soul, what's wrong with me?
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 I was thinking that night about Elvis
 Day that he died, day that he died
 Just a country boy that combed his hair
 Put on a shirt his mother made and he went on the air
 And he shook it like a chorus girl
 He shook it like a Harlem Queen
 He shook it like a midnight rambler, baby
 Like he never seen, never seen, like he never seen, never seen
