Elvis On Velvet Lyrics - Stray Cats

Well, all night long way black top highway midnight hittin' a groove 

Mustang radio, rag top jukebox, Hound Dog don't be cruel 

Roadside rest stop, all night truck stop side show out of a van 

A rhinestone lunch box, ashtray junk shop, key chain hittin' the fan 

Elvis on velvet, don't know why it makes me blue 

Elvis on velvet, it's got a strange effect on you 

Elvis on velvet, somehow it makes me mad 

Elvis on velvet, and I can see him tonight up on the road ahead 

Well, drift back daydream Memphis street scene 1955 

A street flair flat bed three piece string band shakin' man alive 

Then Heartbreak Hotel, Jailhouse Rock, Love Me Tender please 

An' I'm all shooked up, too much, so treat me nice and wear my ring 

Elvis on velvet, I don't know why it makes me blue 

Elvis on velvet, it's got a strange effect on you 

Elvis on velvet, somehow it makes me mad 

Elvis on velvet, and I can see him tonight up on the road ahead 

Well, Graceland, wasteland right this way ma'am one low price to pay 

His life, his love, his home, his stuff, his final resting place 

Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, thy records re-released 

All kneel to second guess and bless him, let him rest in peace 

Elvis on velvet, I don't know why it makes me blue 

Elvis on velvet, it's got a strange effect on you 

Elvis on velvet, oh, somehow it makes me mad 

Elvis on velvet, and I can see him tonight up on the road ahead 

Elvis on velvet, I don't know why it makes me blue 

Elvis on velvet, it's got a strange effect on you 

Elvis on velvet, somehow it makes me mad 

Elvis on velvet, and I can see him tonight up on the road ahead
