One, two, three, four
A cat has nine lives
But man, you don't live twice
You can play for a price
With your granddaddy's dice
If you wanna be the king
You gotta go to Memphis in your mind
It's a bad point of view
If Pat Boone got through to you
Well, I kissed Peggy Sue
And you could have too
Ain't that a shame
You never went to Memphis in your mind
There's no place cooler
When you've got your Bop-A-Lula on (Mercy)
Slip into your blue suede shoes
We're dancing 'til the break of dawn
Sun Records will be playing
You'll know every word they're saying's true
Heartbreak Hotel is taking reservations
There's a room for you
You can go to any town
Get up but not get down
If you wanna hear that rocket sound
You go to Memphis in your mind
There's no place cooler
When you've got your Bop-A-Lula on (Mercy)
Slip into your blue suede shoes
We're dancing 'til the break of dawn
Sun Records will be playing
You'll know every word they're saying's true
Heartbreak Hotel is taking reservations
There's a room for you
You can have two left feet
And you can still keep the beat
If you're sixteen and sweet
Or you can't leave your seat
If you wanna meet the king
You gotta go to Memphis in your mind (Mercy)
We can all be king
So go to Memphis in your mind
Sounds nothing like Elvis to me.
