Elvis Presley Medley

Текст песни Phil Ochs - Elvis Presley Medley

[Intro]
I've lost my voice now, but I'm gonna try to sing him anyway. Here it comes, Elvis Presley. 

[Part I: My Baby Left Me]

[Verse 1]
Yes my baby left me
Never said a word
Was it something I done
Something that she heard?

[Chorus]
My baby left me
My baby left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word

[Verse 2]
Yes I'm standing at my window
Wring my hands and cry
I hate to lose that woman
Hate to say goodbye

[Chorus]
You know she left me
My baby left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word
[Verse 3]
Baby, one of these mornings
Lord, it won't be long
You'll look for me and baby
Daddy will have gone

[Chorus]
You know she left me
My baby left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word

[Part II: I'm Ready]

[Intro]
Ready, set, go man go
I got a gal that I love so

[Chorus]
I'm ready, ready ready ready
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready ready ready to rock and roll

[Verse 1]
Flat top cats and the dungaree dolls
Headed for the gym to the sock hop ball
I don't care if I spend my dough
'Cause tonight I'm gonna be one happy soul
[Chorus]
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready, ready ready ready
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready ready ready to rock and roll

[Verse 2]
Gonna kick off my shoes, roll up my faded jeans
Grab my rock 'n' roll baby, pour on the steam
Shuffle to the left, shuffle to the right
Gonna rock and roll 'til the early early light

[Chorus]
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready, ready ready ready
I'm ready, ready ready teddy
I'm ready ready ready to rock and roll

[Part III: Heartbreak Hotel]

[Verse 1]
Well, since my baby left me
And I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of lonely street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where you could be
[Chorus]
You'd be so lonely baby
You'd be so lonely
You'd be so lonely you could die

[Verse 2]
Although it's always crowded
Well you still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And you could be

[Chorus]
You'd be so lonely baby
You'd be so lonely
You'd be so lonely you could die

[Verse 3]
Well the bellhop's tears keep flowing
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well they've been so long on lonely street
Well they're never looking back
And you could be

[Chorus]
You'd be so lonely baby
You'd be so lonely
You'd be so lonely you could die

[Verse 4]
Well now, if your baby leaves you
And you got a tale to tell
Well just take a walk down lonely street
To Heartbreak Hotel
Where you could be

[Chorus]
You'd be so lonely baby
You'd be so lonely
You'd be so lonely you could die

[Part IV: All Shook Up]

[Verse 1]
Uh, well, a-bless my soul
What's wrong with me?
I'm itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I'm actin' wild as a bug
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Well, my hands are shakin' and my knees are weak
I can't seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you think when you have such luck?
I'm in love
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Bridge]
Well, please don't ask me what's on my mind
I'm a little mixed up, but I'm feeling fine
When I'm near the girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death

[Verse 3]
When she touched my hand, what a chill I got
Her lips are like a volcano that's hot
I'm proud to say that she's my buttercup
I'm in love (Unh)
I'm all shook up
Mm mm, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mm mm, yeah, yeah
I'm all shook up

[Part V: Are You Lonesome Tonight?]

[Intro]
Yeah, whoa

[Verse]
Are you lonesome tonight?
Do you miss me tonight?
Are you sorry we drifted apart?
Does your memory stray
To a bright summer day
When you kissed me and called me sweetheart?
Do the chairs in your parlor seem empty and bare?
Do you gaze at your doorstep and picture me there?
Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again?
Tell me dear, are you lonesome tonight?

[Part VI: My Baby Left Me (Reprise)]

[Verse 1]
Yes my baby left me
Never said a word
Was it something I done
Something that she heard?

[Chorus]
My baby left me
My baby left me
My baby even left me
Never said a word

[Outro: Phil Ochs, Musicians and crew, Audience]
Power! Electricity. Power in the amp here?

Power in the guitar please. Who's in charge of power? Do it in the guitar please. 

More! I want to do more, give me the guitar please. Hey, hey Carnegie Hall, give me the power in the guitar, please, all right?

Find it for you. Look, this is, this is such bullshit. They cut the microphone. Can you hear me?

Testing. Look, I'm telling you man, I'm telling you. There's nothing we can do, we're only - no problem

Can you hear me? Yes. Carnegie Hall shut the power. Say "That's bullshit."

That's bullshit!

"We want power."

We want power!

Can you hear me? Give me the power. 

We want power!
We want power!
We want power!
We want power!
We want power!
We want power!
The power's on. We got the power. Kenny! Get your bass, Kenny.
