There's a boy from Memphis town
With a voice that shakes the ground
From the juke joints to city streets
He's got the rhythm, he's got the beat

With a smile that drives 'em wild
Moves so smooth, like a rebel child
When he swings those hips, there's nothin' wrong
He's takin' the world with a rockin' song

He's lightin' up the stage tonight
Every move feels just right
Girls scream loud, boys wanna be
That shining star, wild and free

Elvis, oh Elvis, can't you see?
You're the king of rock and roll, the way it's meant to be
Elvis, the pelvis, shake those hips
With every move, every note, the girls can't resist
Elvis, oh, Elvis, light the flame
'Cause after you, nothin' will be the same

The old folks say he's out of line
But the kids know he's right on time
With his hair slicked back and a leather coat
He's got the rhythm that hits the note

In a world that's changin' fast
Elvis showed us how to make it last
From the stage to the silver screen
He's the one who made rock 'n' roll a dream

He's lightin' up the stage tonight
Every move feels just right
Girls scream loud, boys wanna be
That shining star, wild and free

Elvis, oh, Elvis, can't you see?
You're the king of rock and roll, the way it's meant to be
Elvis, the pelvis, shake those hips
With every move, every note, the girls can't resist
Elvis, oh, Elvis, light the flame
'Cause after you, nothin' will be the same

They tried to stop him, say he's movin' too fast
But the sound of rebellion was built to last
With fire in his soul and a rhythm so bold
Elvis, man, you broke the mold

Elvis, oh, Elvis, can't you see?
You're the king of rock and roll, the way it's meant to be
Elvis, the pelvis, shake those hips
With every move, every note, the girls can't resist
Elvis, oh, Elvis, light the flame
'Cause after you, nothin' will be the same

Elvis, oh, Elvis, the king of sound
You turned this whole world upside down
Elvis, oh, Elvis, the world's in your hands
You're the rebel king of rock and roll land
