[Verse 1]
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

[Verse 2]
Blue moon
You knew just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

[Refrain]
Without a love of my own

[Verse 3]
Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

[Refrain]
Without a love of my own

[Outro]
Blue moon
Without a love of my own

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.
