[ Heartbreak Hotel ]
|
|
Well, since my baby left me |
Well, I found a new place to dwell |
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street |
That Heartbreak Hotel |
|
Where I'll be |
Heartbreak is so lonely, baby |
Well, I'm so lonely |
I could die |
|
Although it's always crowded |
You still can find some room |
For broken-hearted lovers |
To cry there in the gloom |
They'll be |
Heartbreak is so lonely, baby |
Heartbreak is so lonely |
Ah, they're so lonely they could die |
|
Now, the bellhop's tears keep flowin' |
And the desk clerk's dressed in black |
Well, they been so long on lonely street |
They'll never, never look back |
|
And they'll be |
Heartbreak is so lonely, baby |
Well, they're so lonely |
Well, they're so lonely |
They could die |
|
Well now, if your baby leaves ya |
You've got a tale to tell |
Well, just take a walk down Lonely Street |
To Heartbreak Hotel |
|
Where you will be |
Heartbreak is so lonely, baby |
Well, you will be lonely |
You'll be so lonely you could die |

You ain't nothin' but a hound dog |
Cryin' all the time |
You ain't nothin' but a hound dog |
Cryin' all the time |
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit |
And you ain't no friend of mine * |
|

Well they said you was high-classed |
Well, that was just a lie |
Yeah they said you was high-classed |
Well, that was just a lie |
Well, you ain't never caught a rabbit |
And you ain't no friend of mine ** |

[ Jailhouse Rock ]
|
|
The warden threw a party in the county jail |
Prison band was there and they began to wail |
Band was jumpin' and the joint began to swing |
Should've heard thosed kocked out jail birds sing |
Lets Rock Everybody Lets Rock |
Everybody in the whole cell block |
Was a-dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
|
Spider Murphy played the tenor saxophone |
Little Joe was blowin' on the slide trombone |
The drummer boy for Illinois went crash, boom, bang |
The whole rhythm section was the purple gang |
Lets Rock Everybody Lets Rock |
Everybody in the whole cell block |
Was a-dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
|
Number forty seven said to Number Three |
You're the cutest jailbird I ever did see |
I sure would be delighted with your company |
Come on and do the jailhouse rock with me |
Lets Rock Everybody Lets Rock |
Everybody in the whole cell block |
Was a-dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
|
The sad sack was a-sittin' on a block of stone |
Way over in the corner weeping all alone |
The warden said, hey, buddy, don't you be no square |
If you can't find a partner use a wooden chair |
Lets Rock Everybody Lets Rock |
Everybody in the whole cell block |
Was a-dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
|
Shifty Henry said to Bugs, for Heaven's sakes |
No one's lookin'; now's our chance to make a break |
Bugsy turned to Shifty and he said, nix, nix |
I wanna stick around a while and get my kicks |
Lets Rock Everybody Lets Rock |
Everybody in the whole cell block |
Was a-dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
|
Dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
Dancin' to the Jail-house Rock |
Dancin' to the Jail-house Rock … |

l've got these hup two three four |
Occupation G.I.Blues |
From my G.I.hair |
To the heels of my G.I.shoes |
And if I don't go Stateside soon |
l'm gonna blow my fuse * |
|
We get hasenpfeffer |
And black pumpernickel for chow |
We get hasenpfeffer |
And black pumpernickel for chow |
l'd blow my next month's pay |
For a slice of Texas cow |
|
We'd like to be heroes |
But all that we do here is march |
We'd like to be heroes |
But all that we do here is march |
And they don't give the Purple Heart |
For a fallen arch |

The frauleins are pretty as flowers |
But we can't make a pass |
The frauleins are pretty as flowers |
But we can't make a pass |
Cause they're all wearin' signs sayin' |
"Keep it to your own grass" |

[ Viva Las Vegas ]
|
|
Bright light city gonna set my soul |
Gonna set my soul on fire |
Got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn, |
So get those stakes up higher |
|
There's a thousand pretty women waitin' out there |
And they're all livin' devil may care |
And I'm just the devil with love to spare |
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas |
|
How I wish that there were more |
Than the twenty-four hours in the day |
'Cause even if there were forty more |
I wouldn't sleep a minute away |
|
Oh, there's black jack and poker and the roulette wheel |
A fortune won and lost on ev'ry deal |
All you need's a strong heart and a nerve of steel |
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas |
|
Viva Las Vegas with you neon flashin' |
And your one armbandits crashin' |
All those hopes down the drain |
Viva Las Vegas turnin' day into nighttime |
Turnin' night into daytime |
If you see it once |
You'll never be the same again |
|
I'm gonna keep on the run |
I'm gonna have me some fun |
If it costs me my very last dime |
If I wind up broke up well |
I'll always remember that I had a swingin' time |
|
I'm gonna give it ev'rything I've got |
Lady luck please let the dice stay hot |
Let me shout a seven with ev'ry shot |
Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas, |
Viva Las Vegas, Viva, Viva Las Vegas |
|
Viva, Viva Las Vegas |
