"Elvis' Treorchy Memories"

Love me tender, love me true

Treorchy ladies I won't forget you

You'e the prettiest things on God's earth

Nothing can match you from here to Perth.

If Elvis came back then there's one thing I know

He'd sure come to Treorchy to do a show

He sure wouldn't sing rap or soul

You'd get Jailhouse Rock and King Creole.

He'd sing for you his every song

And put everything right that is wrong

He'd sing 'Loving You' and 'G.I. Blues'

'Hound Dog' and 'Blue Suede Shoes'.

I'm a big Elvis fan and I promise you

After hearing 'Love Me Tender' you would be too

And with all my Treorchy memories it is said

The spirit of Elvis will never be dead.

(From an old fellow with a yellow beard, bushy eyebrows and horned rim glasses.

p.s .If you play my CD you'll know it's true - a bit of Elvis is always with you...)
