[Chorus]
Didja' ever
Didja' ever get
Didja' ever get one
Didja' ever get one of them (days)

Didja' ever get one of them days, boys
Didja' ever get one of them days
When nothing is right from morning till night
Didja' ever get one of them days, boys
Didja' ever get one of them days

[Verse 1]
Ya get up in the morning and turn the shower on
You're getting pneumonia, the hot hot water is gone
Freezing, sneezing
You wanna dry your back, well
Didja' ever get one of them days
When there's no towel on the rack
(Rack, rack, rack, rack)
(Rack, rack, rack, rack)

Didja' ever
Didja' ever get
Didja' ever get one
Didja' ever get one of them
Didja' ever get one of them girls, boys
Didja' ever get one of them girls
Who's awful nice
But cold as ice
Didja' ever get one of them girls, yeah
Didja' ever get one of them girls
(Yeah! Girls, girls, girls, girls, girls, girls, girls, girls)

[Verse 2]
You're at a drive-in movie with a cute brunette
A-counting on the kisses that you figure to get
Closer, closer, then she hollers whoa
Didja' ever get one of them girls
Who just wants to watch the show
(Show, show, show, show, show, show, show, show)

[Chorus]
Didja' ever
Didja' ever get
Didja' ever get one
Didja' ever get one of them (days)

Didja' ever get one of them days, boys
Didja' ever get one of them days
When nothing is right from morning till night
Didja' ever get one of them days, boys
Didja' ever get one of them days
(Days, days, days, days)
(Days, days, days, days)

[Verse 3]
You're on a Sunday picnic and then it starts to pour
You run through poison ivy, scratch until you're sore
Ants come dancing, carry off the bread
Didja' ever get one of them days
When you shoulda stayed in bed
(Days, days, days, days)
(Days, days, days, days)

[Outro]
Didja' ever
Didja' ever get
Didja' ever get one
Didja' ever get one of them days
One of them days

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.
