Pretend Im Elvis For Just One Night
[Verse 1]
You're a little long in the tooth, babe
And me, I'm puffy and under the weather
But the drunker I get, that band gets tight
And honey, you're looking better
So here's to dim lights and dingy bars
To the alcohol haze and the smoke
And the chance to reinvent ourselves
Hey baby, let's go for broke

[Chorus]
And pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
I will call you Priscilla, if that's all right
Don't we look sorta like 'em in the neon light?
Would you pretend I'm Elvis, darling
For just one night?

[Verse 2]
Now it's one a.m., and we follow the band
Down a dead-end lonely street
Here's a song about our destiny
How we were meant to meet
So drink up, honey, and wrap me
In good looks, fortune, and fame
I don't need to know who you really are
You don't need to know my name
[Chorus]
Just pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
I will call you Priscilla, if that's all right
Don't we look sorta like 'em in the neon light?
Would you pretend I'm Elvis, darling
For just one night?

[Bridge]
Two more drinks, and that cab outside will become a limo
You and me, we gotta hang on tight to this fragile spell
But girl, it ain't easy, and I get queasy as hell
Looking at a map where every road leads back
To my room at the Heartbreak Hotel

[Verse 3]
We all need God's redemption, honey
Tonight Graceland is a bar
And even if I can't sing too good
Or play the guitar
I think I could love you tender
Treat you like a queen
We can work a little magic
If you imagine I'm the king

[Chorus]
And pretend I'm Elvis for just one night
I will call you Priscilla, if that's all right
Don't we look sorta like 'em in the neon light?
Would you pretend I'm Elvis, darling
For just one night?
Would you pretend I'm Elvis, darling
For just one night?
[Outro: Gene Eugene]
Should we keep playing? A little tag like that, but not that
