Elvis Presley - King Of The Whole Wide World (Can't Help Falling In Love-Hol)
(Words & music by Batchelor - Roberts)
A poor man wants the oyster
A rich man wants the pearl
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
Come on let's sing, sing brother sing
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
The rich man wants the princess
The poor man just wants a girl
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
Come on let's sing, sing brother sing
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
A poor man wants to be a rich man
A rich man wants to be a king
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
Come on let's sing, sing brother sing
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
Come on let's sing, sing brother sing
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's the king of the whole wide world
Of the whole wide world
Of the whole wide world

Beautiful. No other big name performer...the Beatles, the Stones, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Garth Brooks or Mariah Carey has proven that they can summon up the ability to do an impromptu performance.

This video is now going into my "Rare Elvis Songs" playlist. This song is actually titled "Show Me Thy Ways, Oh Lord". This is the only video here on Youtube with this Elvis song. This is such a totally brilliant and humorous homerecorded performance by Elvis. I've owned this Elvis recording on CD since 1999. Thanks a whole lot for this absolutely tremendous upload, 10 Stars.
