Artist/Band: The Tractors
Lyrics for Song: The Elvis Thing
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Tractors



In nineteen fifty-six... The United States of America

Dropped a hi-fi needle on rock and roll

And coast to coast, we started shakin' all over

One nation, under God, out of control



[Chorus]

It's The Elvis Thing

It cuts right through you

It tangles you up inside... turns your world upside down

Like a mystery train... screamin' through the night

There ain't nothin' been the same since The Elvis Thing been around



I grew up drivin' a tractor and playin' electric guitar

It's a strange road full of detours and twists and turns

And when I ask myself why I do what I do

The answer is simple... there's a reason my earthly heart burns



[Chorus]



Come on, love me tender

Come on, come on, love me true

Just like The Elvis Thing got a hold on me...

I wanna get a hold of you



When they write the history books and try to explain

The second half of the twentieth century

They'll talk about puttin' a man on the moon...

They'll talk about Vietnam...

They'll talk about Martin Luther King and John F. Kennedy...

(But you know what they'll really be talkin' about)



[Chorus]



Like a mystery train... screamin' through the night

There ain't nothin' been the same since

The Elvis Thing been around
