Million Dollar Quartet

(words & music by otis blackwell - elvis presley)
When you looked into my eyes
I stood there like i was hyp-notised
You sent a feeling to my spine
A feeling warm and smooth and fine
But all i could do were stand there paralyzed
When we kissed, ooh what a thrill
You took my hand and, ooh baby, what a chill
I felt like grabbin' you real tight
Squeeze and squeeze with all my might
But all i could do were stand there paralyzed

Oh yeah lucky me, i'm singing ev'ry day
Ever since that day you came my way
You made my life for me just one big happy game
I'm gay ev'ry morning
At night i'm still the same
Do you remember that wonderful time
You held my hand and swore that you'll be mine
In front of preacher you said
"i do" i couldn't say a word for thinking of you
All i could do was stand there paralyzed

(words & music by otis blackwell - elvis presley)
You know i can be found,
Sitting home all alone,
If you can't come around,
At least please telephone.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.

Baby, if i made you mad
For something i might have said,
Please, let's forget the past,
The future looks bright ahead,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you i'm thinking of.

Don't stop thinking of me,
Don't make me feel this way,
Come on over here and love me,
You know what i want you to say.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Why should we be apart?
I really love you baby, cross my heart.

Let's walk up to the preacher
And let us say i do,
Then you'll know you'll have me,
And i'll know that i'll have you,
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you i'm thinking of.

Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
Don't be cruel to a heart that's true.
I don't want no other love,
Baby it's just you i'm thinking of.

There's no place like home
Well i say now home, home sweet home
There's no place like home
Wherever you wander
There's no place like home

Well i used to have a sweetheart
To walk and talk with me
But now i have no sweetheart
What pleasure do i see

There's no place like home
Well i say now home, home sweet home
There's no place like home
Wherever you wander
There's no place like home

There's no place like home

(we'll understand it all by and by)
Tempted and tried we're oft' made to wonder
Why it should be thus all the day long
While there are others living about us
Never molested, though in the wrong

Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by

When death has come and taken our loved ones
Leaving our homes so lonely and drear
Then do we wonder how others prosper
Living so wicked year after year

Farther along we'll know more about it
Farther along we'll understand why
Cheer up my brother live in the sunshine
We'll understand it all by and by

Arrested on charges of unemployment,
He was sitting in the witness stand
The judge's wife called up the district attorney
Said you free that brown eyed man
You want your job you better free that brown eyed man

Flying across the desert in a twa,
I saw a woman walking across the sand
She been a walkin' thirty miles en route to bombay
To get a brown eyed handsome man
Her destination was a brown eyed handsome man

Way back in history three thousand years
Back every since the world began
There's been a whole lot of good women shed a tear
For a brown eyed handsome man
That's what the trouble was brown eyed handsome man

Beautiful daughter couldn't make up her mind
Between a doctor and a lawyer man
Her mother told her daughter go out and find yourself
A brown eyed handsome man
That's what your daddy is a brown eyed handsome man

Milo venus was a beautiful lass
She had the world in the palm of her hand
But she lost both her arms in a wrestling match
To get brown eyed handsome man
She fought and won herself a brown eyed handsome man

Two, three count with nobody on
He hit a high fly into the stand
Rounding third he was headed for home
It was a brown eyed handsome man
That won the game; it was a brown eyed handsome man
