"Have you ever pondered on the stars
How they twinkle, spark, and shine
They wonder how you got there
And squander while you whine
Lying here so softly
Next to my old guitar
The booze has taken slowly
But the withdrawals not so hard
I'm just a 'Hound Dog'
Not no 'Devil in Disguise'
My glaucomas getting fidgety
I can feel it in my eyes
Hair black, slicked back
The gels just yet dry
The gigs aren't cutting slack
My reigns an all time high
Need 'A Little Less Conversation'
Ex-Wife couldn't provide that
Looking for a 'Return to Sender'
Or just one long gentle chat
My 'Heartbreak Hotel'
Feeling empty all along
'It's now or never' really
Time for one last love song
The touring moves around me
Shifting where it goes
It's loud, obnoxious, and frightful
When it ends no one knows
My tour is just about over
I can tell you yet just that
Looking over in my mirror
Puking on the bathroom mat
I am the King of Rock and Roll
My 'Blue Suede Shoes' do so shake
Watch me lose control
Watch me jitter like an earthquake
I've grown round and old in my years
I'd hope to stop singing never
Trust me, my legacy's not forgotten
Because baby, the King lasts forever"
