Elvis Saves

I saw Elvis yesterday, pumpin gas at circle k
Long sideburns, diamond ring, golden light around the king
Alive and well as you and me, just like I seen him on t.v.
He drove a pearly white cadillac, box of donuts in the back
You can say it ain’t true, but I know it was that Elvis dude
Then I heard his music play, now I know Elvis saves
Testify, I can’t behave, I pray Elvis saves

The king reached out and touched my hand ha;nd
All at once I saw graceland,
I went into a trance, uh huh huh I had to dance
Pretty girls was everywhere
Hound dog and teddy bear

Heartbreak hotel across the street
Want a room I’m feeling beat
They wanted cash won’t take a check
I went on in what the heck
In my room a sign that read
The king himself slept in this bed

Testify, I can’t behave, rocking to my grave, I pray Elvis saves
Testify, I’m just a slave, going thru a reckless phase
I pray Elvis saves
I woke up this morning in my bed, heard the music in my head
How it was I got backi, I don’t know I lost track\
Ever since I was born again
They say I look a lot like him

Testify
