The King Is Gone (So Are You)

Roger Ferris

Last night, I broke the seal
On a Jim Beam decanter that looks like Elvis
I soaked the label off a Flintstone Jelly Bean jar
I cleared us off a place on that one little table
That you left us
And pulled me up a big ole piece of floor

I pulled the head off Elvis
Filled Fred up to his pelvis
Yabba-Dabba-Doo, the King is gone
And so are you

'Round about ten we all got to talking
'Bout Graceland, Bedrock and such
The conversation finally turned to women
But they said they didn't get around too much
Elvis said, "find 'em young" and Fred said "old-fashioned girls are fun"
Yabba-Dabba-Doo, the King is gone
And so are you

Later on it finally hit me
That you wouldn't be a-comin' home no more
'Cause this time I know you won't forgive me
Like all of them other times before

Then I broke Elvis' nose
Pouring the last drop from his toes
Yabba-Dabba-Doo, the King is gone
And so are you
Yabba-Dabba-Doo, the King is gone
And so are you

Last night, I broke the seal on a Jim Beam decanter
That looks like Elvis
I soaked the label off a Flintstone Jelly Bean jar
