Lyrics
I wanna be the king of Tennessee
I wanna shake it from black and white to color TV
And I wanna rock and roll in fancy cars
I wanna spend my days with Hollywood stars
Oh, I wanna sing, I wanna sing like the king
And I wanna go from rags to riches, too
I wanna show of my fancy blue suede shoes
And I wanna feel that warm spotlight
I wanna sway my hips all through the night
Oh, I wanna feel, I wanna feel like the king
Oh I wanna, I wanna, I wanna be
Oh I wanna, I wanna, I wanna be
I said I wanna be
Just like Elvis Presley
Only time will tell, only time will tell
Only time tells whether a king goes to heaven or hell
And I know I've been a pretty good man
I can say I've done the best a man can
Oh I wanna see and I wanna touch my maker's hand
Oh I wanna, I wanna, I wanna be
Oh I wanna, I wanna, I wanna be
I said I wanna be
Just like...
the king.
