The Walls Have EarsElvis Presley

Released: November 9, 1962

Songwriter: Roy Bennett Sid Tepper

Producer: Joseph Lilley

[Intro]
The walls have ears, ears that hear each little sound you make
Every time you stamp, throw a lamp, and every cup and dish you break

[Chorus]
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on, baby, don't fight tonight

[Bridge]
The walls have ears, better think before you fling that shoe
If you part my hair with a chair, they'll spread the news to Timbuktu

[Chorus]
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on, baby, don't fight tonight

[Verse]
Jets can fly, fast and high, rockets can go even faster
But they can't catch or even match sound traveling through plaster

The walls have ears, ears that hear each little sound you make
Every time you stamp, throw a lamp, and every cup and dish you break

[Outro]
But they can't hear a kiss or two arms that hold you tight
So come on, baby, don't fight tonight
Just dim the light
Don't fight tonight

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.
