[Verse 1]
Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call?
Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call?
Can't you hear me when I call?
Well you ain't so big, you know you just tall that's all, All right
Well you got me working, boss man
Working round the clock
I want to little drink of water
But you won't let big Al stop
Big boss man, now can't you hear me when I call? All right
I said you ain't so big, you know you just tall that's all

[Verse 2]
Big boss man, why can't you hear me when I call? All right
You know you ain't not so big, I said you just tall that's all, All right
I'm going to get me a boss man
The one who's going to treat me right
I work hard in the day time
Rest easy at night
Big boss man, can't you hear me when I call? Can't you hear me when I call?
I said you ain't so big, you just tall that's all
I'm going to get me a boss man
One that's going to treat me right
I work hard in the evening
Rest easy at night
Big boss man, big boss man, can't you hear me when I call?
I said you ain't so big, you just tall that's all
All right, big boss man
It's all right

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.
