Elvis Made My Heart Go Pitter Pat
Elvis was the guy who made my heart go pitter pat.
I wanted him to dump Ann Margaret and her cat.
With his dark blue black hair and eyes that saw you true.
I wanted Elvis to discover me, and love me through and through.
Of course I was old enough to realize it was not going to be.
But still I had my dreams, and my swinging fantasy.
I watched his movies and felt he was singing straight to me.
He was such a marvelous man, a terrific celebrity.
I saw his army photos and I swooned, because it is what you do.
He was pretty in black and white, and color, through and through.
Elvis was good at everything- singing, dancing -the king if you ask me.
His voice still makes my heart go pitter pat you see.
