[Verse 1]
I'll be as strong as a mountain
Or weak as a willow tree
Any way you want me
Well, that's how I will be

[Verse 2]
I'll be as tame as a baby
Or wild as the raging sea
Any way you want me
Well, that's how I will be

[Verse 3]
In your hands my heart is clay
To take and hold as you may
I'm what you make me, you've only to take me
And in your arms I will stay

[Verse 4]
I'll be a fool or a wise man
My darling, you hold the key
Yes, any way you want me
Well, that's how I will be
I will be

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.
