Текст песни
In the shadow of a neon moon
Memphis whispers a haunted tune
Blue suede steps on a wooden floor
Heartbreak knocking at heaven’s door
Jailhouse rhythm in his veins
Golden suit in pouring rain
From Sun Studio to the throne
A lonely king with a broken tone
He said, “Love me tender… love me true
And the whole wide world just knew
Velvet voice in a velvet night
Burning bright in Vegas lights
Can’t help falling, falling slow
Wise men watching from below
Suspicious minds in the dark
Electric hips, a sacred spark
All shook up when he’d move that way
Hound Dog crying in delay
“It’s now or never,” hear the call
A gospel fire inside us all
Viva Las Vegas, the king’s alive
Burning in every four-on-the-floor drive
Heartbreak Hotel in a minor key
You ain’t nothin’ but a memory
Love me tender o-oh, feel that fire
Rising higher and higher and higher
From Memphis streets to eternity
Long live the king of rock melody
In the silence he still sings
Through the static, through the strings
Blue Christmas in our soul
Lonely echoes taking hold
If I can dream of a brighter land
Where rhythm and hope still take a stand
The crown may fade, the lights grow dim
But every stage still breathes with him
Viva Las Vegas, the king’s alive
Burning in every midnight drive
Heartbreak Hotel in a minor key
You ain’t nothin’ but a legacy
Love me tender hold me close
Feel that fever in every note
From Graceland gates to infinity
Long live the king of rock melody
All shook up yeah-yeah, can’t sit still
Suspicious minds on the hill
It’s now or never, can’t you see
Elvis lives in you and me
Uh-huh-huh
In the ghetto of our hearts he stays
Burning through these endless days
One last chord… we let it ring
Long live the king… the king… the king
