[Verse 1]
Hey everybody gather round
And listen to that bongo sound
Grab the first one in your reach
Now we're going to shake the beach

[Chorus]
Do the Clam, do the Clam
Grab your barefoot baby by the hand
Turn and tease, hug and squeeze
Dig right in and do the Clam

[Verse 2]
You can get your heart to spin
On the outside looking in
The moon ain't going to last all night
Let's work up an appetite

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Everybody's got that beat
Well, listen to those happy feet
Ain't you glad that you found out
What the Clam is all about

[Chorus] [x2]
Do the Clam, do the Clam
Oh and grab your barefoot baby by the hand
Turn and tease, hug and squeeze
Dig right in and do the Clam
Dig right in and do the Clam

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.
