[Verse 1]
You got the huggin'est arms
The thrillin'est eyes
You're just my style
And you're just the right size
Gonna stop
Uh, shopping around

[Chorus]
I'm gonna stop
Shopping around 'cause I found
The girlie I'm looking for

[Verse 2]
Oh, the very first time
You touched my lips
Took my little red book
And I tore it in bits
Ain't going to be
Searching no more

[Chorus]
I'm gonna stop
Shopping around 'cause I found
The girlie I'm looking for

[Verse 3]
Ain't no other dolly I'm wanting to hold
Hey, hey, baby, I really am sold on you

Such a pretty little package
I never did see
Going to wrap you up and take you home with me
I'm thrilled like never before

[Chorus]
I'm gonna stop
Shopping around 'cause I found
The girlie I'm looking for

[Verse 3]
Ain't no other dolly I'm wanting to hold
Hey, hey, baby, I really am sold on you

Such a pretty little package
I never did see
Going to wrap you up and take you home with me
I'm thrilled like never before

[Chorus]
I'm gonna stop
Shopping around 'cause I found
The girlie I'm looking for

[Outro]
I'm gonna stop
Uh shopping around
I'm gonna stop
Uh shopping around
I'm gonna stop
Uh shopping around

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.
