[Verse 1]
Line up girls, I'll show you what to do
This boat will sparkle like a diamond when we get through
By the numbers there is not much time
We're gonna start an assembly line

[Chorus]
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

[Verse 2]
You get the sandpaper, you get the pails
You get the hammer baby, you get the nails
You get the paint, you get the brush
Because we're gonna give it the special touch

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
We got a magic potion that will help us win
I don't know how to spell it but dip right in
Glocoseoxytonicphosphate, it's the latest scoop
But that's all right girls you can call it "Goop"

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Work the sandpaper, hammer that nail
Tote that paintbrush and lift that pail
Get a rhythm going, nice and easy
Come on and use a little elbow greasy

[Chorus]

[Verse 5]
O.K. Girls, we're all through
I'm going to tell you what we're gonna do
We'll fall right down and have some fun
And I'm gonna kiss you all one by one

[Chorus]

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.
