"The King Is Gone (So Are You)" lyrics
"The King Is Gone (So Are You)"
(originally by George Jones)
Last night I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis
I soaked the label off a Flintstone's Jelly Bean jar
I cleared us off a place on that one little table that you left us
Then I pulled me up a big ole piece of floor
I pulled the head off Elvis
Filled Fred up to his pelvis
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is gone, and so are you
'Round about ten we all got to talkin'
About Graceland, Bedrock and such
The conversation finally turned to women
But they said they didn't get around too much
Elvis said, "Find 'em young"
And Fred said, "Old-fashioned girls are fun"
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is gone, and so are you
Then later on it finally hit me
That you wouldn't be a-comin' home no more
'Cause this time I know you won't forgive me
Like all of them other times before
Then I broke Elvis's nose
Pourin' the last drop from his toes
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is gone, and so are you
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is gone, and so are you
Last night I broke the seal
On a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis

Always had my back when...

Between a preppy and a hippy

Or the dark side of the moon
You could change your number
