[Verse 1]
When they gave out eyes like diamonds
That would shame the stars that shine
My darling, my darling
You were the first in line

When they gave out lips like honey
That hold a new thrill every time
My darling, my darling
You were the first in line

[Verse 2]
There may be others that know you longer
Who pledge their hearts to you
But there's no other could love you stronger
Any stronger than I do

Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
I'm yours, oh please be mine
My darling, say I'm your darling
The first and the last in line

[Verse 2]
There may be others that know you longer
Who pledge their hearts to you
But there's no other could love you stronger
Any stronger than I do

Don't refuse me, say you'll choose me
I'm yours, oh please be mine
My darling, say I'm your darling
The first and the last in line

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.
