Jimmy Buffett - Elvis Imitators lyrics
[Jimmy Buffett - Elvis Imitators lyrics]
"Thank you very much ladies and
Gentlemen i'd like to do
This next song especially for you
And for the King"
Well, I walk up to the mike and
And then I shake my hips
I take a deep breath and put
A snare on my lips see me on the streets
You wouldn't know my name
But imitating Elvis is my claim to fame
So when you put my imitation name in lights
There'll be imitation good rockin' tonight
'Cause I'm an an Elvis imitator
And I just can't stop
Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top
Imitate the way he talked, the way he smiled
I throw away my scarf and
Make the crowd go wild
This imitation Elvis may not be the king
But baby, I'm the next best thing
Singing "Viva Las Vegas" and the GI blues
Won't you love me tender in
My blue suede shoes?
Well, let me be your teddy bear, if you must
Oh baby, please surrender
'cause I need your touch
Well if you're feelin' lonely
Need a place to dwell
Come on down to imitation heartbreak hotel
We're gonna rock ooh, we're gonna rock
Ooh, we're gonna rock ooh, we're gonna rock
Yeah my gold lame cape and my sequined suit
Pompidou haircut and my high heeled boots
Imitating Elvis is the only way
I can make it through my imitation day
I know this rocking music can't be denied
'Cause I was imitating him before he died
Well, I'm an an Elvis imitator
And I just can't stop
Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top
I imitate the way he walked
The way he smiled i throw away my scarf and
Make the crowd go wild
This imitation Elvis may not be the king
But baby, I'm the next best thing
We're gonna rock ooh, we're gonna rock
Ooh, we're gonna rock ooh, we're gonna rock
Well baby, it's the next best thing
"Thank you very much ladies and gentlemen
Viva Las Vegas viva Las Vegas!"
Gentlemen i'd like to do
This next song especially for you
And for the King"
Well, I walk up to the mike and
And then I shake my hips
I take a deep breath and put
A snare on my lips see me on the streets
You wouldn't know my name
But imitating Elvis is my claim to fame
So when you put my imitation name in lights
There'll be imitation good rockin' tonight
'Cause I'm an an Elvis imitator
And I just can't stop
Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top
Imitate the way he talked, the way he smiled
I throw away my scarf and

This imitation Elvis may not be the king
But baby, I'm the next best thing
