Elvis Presley The Number One Hits Lyrics
1.Heartbreak Hotel

Now since my baby left me
I've found a new place to dwell:
Down at the end of Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel.
I'm so lonely, I'm so lonely,
I'm so lonely that I could die.

And tho' it's always crowded
You can still find some room
For broken hearted lovers to cry there in the gloom
And be so lonely, oh so lonely,
Oh so lonely they could die.

The bell hop's tears keep flowing,
The desk clerk's dressed in black.
They been so long on Lonely Sreet they never will go back
And they're so lonely, oh they're so lonely,
They're so lonely they pray to die.

So if your baby leaves and you have a tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street to Heartbreak Hotel
Where you'll be lonely and I'll be lonely,
We'll be so lonely that we could die.


2.I Want You, I Need You, I Love You

Lyrics:Kosloff/Maurice Mysels
Music:Kosloff/Maurice Mysels

Hold me close, hold me tight
Make me thrill with delight
Let me know where I stand from the start
I want you, I need you, I love you
With all my heart

Ev'ry time that you're near
All my cares disappear
Darling, you're all that I'm living for
I want you, I need you, I love you
More and more

I thought I could live without romance
Before you came to me
But now I know that
I will go on loving you eternally

Won't you please be my own?
Never leave me alone
'Cause I die ev'ry time we're apart
I want you, I need you, I love you
With all my heart


3.Hound Dog

Written:Jerry Leiber/Mike Stoller

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.

When they said you was high classed,
well, that was just a lie.
When they said you was high classed,
well, that was just a lie.
You ain't never caught a rabbit
and you ain't no friend of mine.


4.Don't Be Cruel

You know I can be found, sitting home all alone,
If you can't come around, at least please telephone.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.

Baby, if I made you mad for something I might have said,
Please, let's forget the past, the future looks bright ahead,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of.

Don't stop thinking of me, don't make me feel this way,
Come on over here and love me, you know what I want you to say.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Why should we be apart.
I really love you baby, cross my heart.

Let's walk up to the preacher and let us say I do,
Then you'll know you have me, and I'll know I'll have you too,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of.

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you I'm thinking of.


5.Love Me Tender

Written:Vera Matson/Elvis Presley

Love me tender, love me sweet
Never let me go
You have made my life complete
And I love you so

*Love me tender, love me true
All my dreams fulfill
For my darlin' I love you
And I always will

Love me tender, love me long
Take me to your heart
For it's there that I belong
And we'll never part

(Repeat *)

Love me tender, love me dear
Tell me you are mine
I'll be yours through all the years
Till the the end of time

(Repeat *)


6.Too Much

Written:Lee Rosenberg/Bernard Weinman

Honey, I love you too much
Need your lovin' too much
Want the thrill of your touch
Gee, I can't hold you too much
You do all the livin'
While I do all the givin'
Cause I love you too much

You spend all my money too much
Have to share you honey, too much
When I want some lovin', you're gone
Don't you know you're treatin' me wrong
Now you got me started
Don't you leave me broken hearted
Cause I love you too much

Ev'ry time I kiss your sweet lips
I can feel my heart go flip flip
I'm such a fool for your charms
Take me back baby in your arms
Like to hear you sighin'
Even though I know you're lyin'
Cause I love you too much

Need your lovin' all the time
Need you huggin', please be mine
Need you near me, stay real close
Please, please, hear me, you're the most
Now you got me started
Don't you leave me broken hearted
Cause I love you too much


7.All Shook Up


8.Teddy Bear

O baby let me be your loving teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck and lead me anywhere
Oh, let me be your teddy bear.

I don't wanna be a tiger 'couse tigers play to rough
I don't wanna be a lion 'couse lions ain't the kind
You love enough

Just I wanna be, your teddy bear
Put a chain around my neck and lead me anywhere
Oh, let me be your teddy bear.

Baby, let me be around you every night
Run your finger through my hair and cuddle me real tight
Oh, let me be your teddy bear.


9.Jailhouse Rock


10.Don't


11.Hard Headed Woman

Well a hard headed woman, a soft hearted man
Been the cause of trouble ever since the world began.
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.

Now Adam told to Eve, Listen here to me,
Don't you let me catch you messin' round that apple tree.
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.

Now Samson told Delilah loud and clear,
Keep your cotton pickin' fingers out my curly hair.
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.

I heard about a king who was doin' swell
Till he started playing with that evil Jezebel.
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.

I got a woman, a head like a rock.
If she ever went away I'd cry around the clock.
Oh yeah, ever since the world began
A hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man.


12.A Big Hunk O' Love


13.Stuck On You

Written:Aaron Schroeder/J.Leslie Mcfarland

You can shake an apple off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake- sugar,
But you'll never shake me
Uh-uh-uh
No-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue,
Stick because I'm
Stuck on you

Gonna run my fingers thru your long black hair
Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear
Uh-uh-uh,
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you

Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good at all
'Cause once I catch ya and the kissin' starts
A team o' wild horses couldn't tear us apart

Try to take a tiger from his daddy's side
That's how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh,uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you


14.It's Now Or Never


15.Are You Lonesome Tonight?

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 I kissed you and called yuo 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?


16.Surrender


17.Good Luck Charm

Don't wanna four leaf clover,
Don't wanna an old horse shoe.
Want your kiss 'couse I just can't miss
With a good luck charm like you.

C'mon an' be my little good luck charm ah
You sweet delight,
I wanna good luck charm
I'm hanging on my own, du hau, do hau
Du how, du how, a tonight.

Don't wanna silver dollar,
Rabbit's foot on a string
My happiness and your warm caress
No rabbit foot can bring.

If I found a lucky penny
I'd toss it across the bay
Your love is worth all the gold on Earth
No wonder that I say.


18.Suspicious Minds

We're caught in a trap; I can't walk out
Because I love you too much, baby.
Why can't you see, what you're doing to me,
When you don't believe a word I say

We can't go on together, with Suspicious Minds.
And we can't build our dreams, on Suspicious Minds.

So, if an old friend I know, drops by to say hello,
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again, asking where I've been.
You can see these tears are real I'm crying.

Oh, let our love survive,
I'll dry the tears from your eyes.
Let's don't let a good thing die, when honey,
You know I've never, lied to you. Mmm, yeah, yeah!
