Shoppin' Around
Elvis Presley · G.I. Blues
The thrillinÂ’est eyes
YouÂ’re just my style
And youÂ’re just the right size
Gonna stop
Uh, shoppinÂ’ around
IÂ’m gonna stop
ShoppinÂ’ around Â’cause I found the girlie IÂ’m lookinÂ’ for
Oh, the very first time
You touched my lips
Took my little red book
And tore it to bits
AinÂ’t gonna be
SearchinÂ’ no more
IÂ’m gonna stop
ShoppinÂ’ around Â’cause I found the girlie IÂ’m lookinÂ’ for
AinÂ’t no other dolly IÂ’m wantinÂ’ to hold
Hey, hey, baby
I really am sold on you
Ooh, ooh, such a pretty little package
I never did see
Gonna wrap you up and take you home with me
IÂ’m thrilled like never before
IÂ’m gonna stop
ShoppinÂ’ around Â’cause I found the girlie IÂ’m lookinÂ’ for
AinÂ’t no other dolly IÂ’m wantinÂ’ to hold
Hey, hey, baby
I really am sold on you
Ooh, ooh, such a pretty little package
I never did see
Gonna wrap you up and take you home with me
IÂ’m thrilled like never before
IÂ’m gonna stop
ShoppinÂ’ around Â’cause I found the girlie IÂ’m lookinÂ’ for
IÂ’m gonna stop
Uh shoppinÂ’ around
IÂ’m gonna stop
Uh shoppinÂ’ around
IÂ’m gonna stop
ShoppinÂ’ around
