[00:05.43]Well I saw a crowd a-gathered[00:08.58]Must've been somebody shot[00:11.52]Reporters scribbled shorthand[00:14.55]And photographed the spot[00:17.16]I moved in a little closer[00:19.44]But I couldn't see no blood[00:22.56]Just a gold-plated chariot[00:25.53]Arisin' from the mud[00:28.35]Then I heard a soulful murmur[00:31.20]And it sounded like his voice[00:33.60]It began to sing, it was the King[00:36.36]It was Elvis' Rolls Royce[00:50.55]Now the wood-grained bar was open[00:52.77]Like he was about to have a drink[00:56.55]A white-gloved chauffeur at the wheel[00:59.58]I never saw him blink[01:02.34]The bobbies looked indifferent[01:05.22]Clearly they were not amused[01:07.80]It was just another auction piece[01:10.71]And it didn't matter whose[01:14.52]D-Day was upon me[01:16.17]And I had to make a choice[01:18.54]Next thing I know[01:20.37]I'm at the wheel of Elvis' Rolls Royce[01:23.94]Well I made a left at Parliament[01:38.97]And hit the pedal hard[01:41.64]And I tipped my hat and I smiled[01:44.25]As I passed by Scotland Yard[01:46.83]Now the voice is talkin' to me[01:49.95]It says "There's nothing to fear"[01:52.41]It was coming from the back seat[01:54.84]But there was no one in the mirror[01:58.68]I got a little nervous[02:01.23]I think I lost my poise[02:03.99]As we crossed the great Atlantic[02:06.60]In Elvis' Rolls Royce[02:20.67]When we got to New York City[02:23.01]The crowds went wild to say the least[02:26.49]As I steered my precious cargo[02:28.98]Through the belly of the beast[02:32.19]Then I took off down the Interstate[02:35.13]And drove throughout the night[02:37.41]Till I reached the state of Tennessee[02:41.76]In the early morning light[02:43.02]There they were, the gates of Graceland[02:45.87]My eyes got kind of moist[02:48.81]Home sweet home to rock'n'roll[02:51.99]And Elvis' Rolls Royce
