[Intro]
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara

[Verse 1]
Tienes el alma de provinciana
Hueles a limpio, a rosa temprana
A verde jara fresca del río
Son mil palomas tu caserío
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Sabes a pura tierra mojada

[Bridge]
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay

[Verse 2]
Ay! Colomitos lejanos
Ay! Ojitos de agua hermanos
Ay colomitos inolvidables
Inolvidables como las tardes
En que la lluvia, desde la loma
Nos nos dejaba ir hasta Zapopan

Ay mis hermanos ay-ay-ay Mexicano

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara
Guadalajara, Guadalajara

Elvis Presley

Elvis Aaron Presley (January 8, 1935 – August 16, 1977) was an American performer that spanned all media—music, film, and historic live concerts—with a vehement passion that earned him the moniker, “The King of Rock and Roll.”

Elvis Presley was born in Tupelo, Mississippi to Gladys and Vernon Presley. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Memphis, Tennessee. Elvis began to explore the blues scene prevalent in Memphis and the culture it encompassed.

In August 1953, he walked into Sun Records to record a song for his mother’s birthday. Manager of Sun Records Sam Phillips took note of his unique voice and persona, and invited Elvis back to the studio in July 1954, where he ultimately recorded his first true single, “That’s All Right,” with “Blue Moon of Kentucky” as the B-side.
