Lyrics

Well, we took off like a sabre jet for graceland one night
Gonna raise the king; it'd be a hell of a fight
To re-incarnate and re-animate his mortal remains
What good is a king if he ain't go no brains?
As long as he can sing that song "suspicious minds" or the "milkcow blues boogie" that would be just fine
Well, we took off like a sabre jet for tennessee
Pulled up to graceland; pulled out my skeleton key
Gonna find out where he's burried; gonna dig him up, and throw his remains on the back of the truck
Perform some kind of voodoo-type ritual thing, and sit back and laugh while we watch him sing
Well, his bones came to life and they moved pretty well
But the rest of him was scattered 'tween heaven and hell
Then he fell to the ground in a pile of white dust, kind of pointing the direction of las vegas
There was a smell in the air like leather and sweat, and we took off for nevada like a sabre jet
