Songwriter: Ray Evans
You say you could fall in love with Elvis
And you love to hear Jacky Wilson sing
Wait a minute, hold it, hold it pretty baby
I just want to tell you one little thing
Oh, well your love for Elvis Presley
Wouldn't last very, very long
'Cause you'd get sick and tired of seeing him
Wiggling passed your door
It's true Jacky Wilson can talk that talk
But you'd get sick and tired of seeing him
Walk that walk
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Yes, you say you can marry Fabian
With the help of the hands of faith
But honey that will never happen
He would forget the wedding day
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Oh yeah, it's true honey, you may get an autograph
You might even get one of them to smile your way
But when it comes down to marriage
You'll never, never, never, never see that wedding day
The only thing that you may be
To Ricky, is just a fan
You'll never get to hold him
He's a travelling man
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Oh, oh, it's true honey, you may get an autograph
Yeah, you might even get one of them to smile your way
But remember honey, when it comes down the marriage
You'll never, never, never, never see that wedding day
The only thing that you can be
To Ricky, is just a fan
You'll never get to squeeze him
He's a travelling man
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Not me, it would not happen with me baby
Ooh, it wouldn't happen with me baby
No, it wouldn't happen with me
And you love to hear Jacky Wilson sing
Wait a minute, hold it, hold it pretty baby
I just want to tell you one little thing
Oh, well your love for Elvis Presley
Wouldn't last very, very long
'Cause you'd get sick and tired of seeing him
Wiggling passed your door
It's true Jacky Wilson can talk that talk
But you'd get sick and tired of seeing him
Walk that walk
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me
It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Yes, you say you can marry Fabian

It wouldn't happen with me, oh no, not me
Not me, it would not happen with me baby
Ooh, it wouldn't happen with me baby
No, it wouldn't happen with me
