Jimmy Webb - Elvis and Me lyrics
Met him one night in the lobby, the Las Vegas hotel He was standing as close as I'm standing next to you now He'd call me by name and I felt like it changed me somehow, yeah Into someone important and special, I know it sounds strange But I swear that it's true It was Elvis And me, me and El We were just like kids, and we got on so well We were laughing and talking as nice as could be Can I tell you a story, He gave me a pass to the late show, In the very first row And when it was over, he came out to the apron that night He looked right at me as if to single me out from the crowd And he slipped me a small piece of paper It said "come back stage", listen this is no joke, It was Elvis And me, me and El In the dressing room, with the boys and the colonel He gave me a wink and he, darn he could see Can I tell you a story Well I took me straight up to the penthouse suite There was stars and pretty girls everywhere Rock and roll royalty just sitting at his feet And the charge of electricity in the air I don't expect you to believe me And I don't really care, 'Cause I was there, I was there I was his number one fan And when he died, part of me passed on too If only he'd called me I know I could have saved him for sure He just needed a friend, He must have been so miserable That old rock of ages couldn't hide it anymore But do you see that empty stool, Well it's sitting there right now, and it's still It was Elvis And me, me and El Hell I'd buy anything that the colonel will sell me Now I know that it's wrong, But I just can't set him free Can I tell you a story Can I tell you a story Well can I tell you a story 'Bout Elvis And me Well can I tell you a story Well can I tell you a story Well can I tell you a story "Bout Elvis And me Elvis And me Elvis and me Elvis and me 'Bout Elvis and me Elvis and me Elvis and me Elvis and me, yeah... |
