Blue Moon Over Graceland

When Elvis Presley dreamed on high All he wanted to do was fly Like Priscilla's blue moon He ballooned with each tune And it sure made his mama cry!

Yes, his last few years were very poorly lived. He was a great talent for decades, though. Good write, Rico. Janice

He lived unsober and high Thinking he could fly like a bumble bee But he couldn't be He did try but fell and died before reaching sky

Junk food and drugs was his downfall, Price of fame I suppose. Tom

Elvis chose all his "friends" and lovers, and his way of living, and that certainly made his mama cry!
