Heartbreak Hotel
Elvis Presley Lyrics
Well, since my baby left me
Well, I found a new place to dwell
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel
Where I'll be--where I get so lonely, baby
Well, I'm so lonely
I get so lonely, I could die
Although it's always crowded
You still can find some room
To cry there in the gloom
And be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well, the bellhop's tears keep flowin'
And the desk clerk's dressed in black
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street
Well, they'll never, they'll never get back
And they'll be so, where they'll be so lonely, baby
Well, they're so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die
Well now, if your baby leaves you
And you have a sad tale to tell
Just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel
And you will be, you will be, you will be lonely, baby
You'll be so lonely
You'll be so lonely, you could die
Well, though it's always crowded
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And they'll be so, they'll be so lonely, baby
They'll be so lonely
They'll be so lonely, they could die

"Heartbreak Hotel" is Elvis's first Number One for RCA and only the second song he recorded for the label. Chet Atkins played rhythm guitar. You can hear Bill Black's stand-up bass, Scotty Moore's electric guitar, D.J. Fontana's drums and Floyd Cramer's piano.

Heartbreak Hotel (my interpretation of this exact version after detailed examination):
Well, since my baby left me,
Well, I found a new place to dwell.
Well, it's down at the end of Lonely Street
At Heartbreak Hotel,
Where I'll be-- I'll be getting so lonely, baby.
Well, I'm so lonely.
I'll be so lonely, I could die.
Although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom
And be so-- they get so lonely, baby.
Well, they get so lonely.
Oh, they're so lonely, they could die.
Now, the bellhop's tears keep flowin',
And the desk clerk's dressed in black.
Well, they've been so long on Lonely Street,
They'll never, they'll never look back,
And they get so, and they get so lonely, baby.
Well, they're so lonely.
Well, they're so lonely, they could die.
Well now, if your baby leaves ya,
And you've gotta tale to tell,
Well, just take a walk down Lonely Street
To Heartbreak Hotel,
Where you will be-- you could be getting so lonely, baby,
Where you will be lonely.
You'll be so lonely, you could die.
Oh, although it's always crowded,
You still can find some room
For broken-hearted lovers
To cry there in the gloom,
And they'll get so-- and they'll be getting so lonely, baby.
Well, they're so lonely.
They'll be so lonely, they could die.

“Elvis is the greatest cultural force in the 20th century. He introduced the beat to everything, music, language, clothes, it’s a whole new social revolution – the ’60s comes from it.”—Leonard Bernstein
James Brown said that everyone, regardless of race, has the right to learn music.
Elvis studied music from blacks and contributed a great deal to rock and roll with creative sounds and styles.
Elvis brought black sound into rock 'n roll. So he was not copying or stealing from anybody. That was so unique. He was unique, that is why Lennon said that before him there was nothing.
He actually created a whole new genre - rockabilly, the fusion of blues and country, which then morphed into rock/n/roll, so he created something which influenced millions of people and changed the world forever.
He didn’t write a song but his sheer raw performing talent, his phrasing of a song and ability to make a song absolutely his were all so extraordinary that someone like Chuck Berry - who was a legend and who wrote all of his own songs - still said that Elvis was ‘the best and the best there ever will be
“I remember Elvis as a young man hanging around the Sun Studios. Even then, I knew this kid had a tremendous talent. He was a dynamic young boy. His phraseology, his way of looking at a song, was as unique as Sinatra’s. I was a tremendous fan, and had Elvis lived, there would have been no end to his inventiveness.”—B.B. King
“Elvis is the best ever, the most original. He started the ball rolling for us all. He deserves the recognition.”—Jim Morrison

Oh, I'm going to stuff you
in the blender
push "puree,"
then bake you into a pie
and feed it
to the social worker!
And when he says,
"Mmm, this is great.
What's your secret?"
I'm going to say...
"Love
Thank You So Very Much

@XxStarqu my dad made me watch the 1973 Hawaii special as a kid. I didn’t appreciate it then, but I watched it again recently and realized how amazing Elvis really is.
