Prayers of Elvis Presley

Words and music by David Munyon, S.P. "Dixie Blue" Standley

 

A song from the prayers of Elvis

 

 

Many nights I wake up, from the prayers of Elvis Presley

Pick up my guitar, stay awake and play

I can vibe affection, from the prayers of Elvis Presley

I can stand the waiting, even waiting in my car

 

Chorus

There's no easy answers

Bringing home these Brahmans

There's only these songs, mostly by the Beatles

There's no easy answers, solving all these problems

Keep playing your guitar

Keep playing your guitar

 

Everybodys rocking, from the prayers of Elvis Presley

Ah, you're looking fine, looking fine

The birds are even talking

About the prayers of Elvis Presley

They say give it all away to the fans if you ca

 

Chorus

 

I once was a lonely reader

I roamed and I smoked and I read

I was once was an entertainer

I gave away all my bread

I once was a lonely hobo

I smiled and I slept like a cat

The boxcars are so full of rainbows

the waves from the rails made the one on my face

Take the memories and hide them away

 

many nights while driving

With the prayers of Elvis Presley

I would run for miles, run for miles

I think I'll keep cruising

With the prayers of Elvis Presley

Try another road, play my radio

 

Chorus
