Elvis Presley

How the web was woven
In my soul, don't you know
How the web was woven
Can't get loose, can't let go

Like the weave of a spider
Wound around my heart, I'm no longer free
At last I'm where you want me
Don't you know that's where, where I want to be?

Spinning 'round like a blue fly
Thoughts of you fill my head
And no matter, oh how I try
I can't sleep in my bed

I've been round for the last time
Oh girl, what can I do?
Oh, that's how the web was woven
How I fell in love, fell in love with you

I've been round for the last time
Oh girl, what can I do?
Oh, that's how the web was woven
How I fell in love, fell in love with you
Oh that's how the web was woven
How I fell in love, fell in love with you

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.
