"The King"

The King is gone (And So Are You)
As sung by George Jones

Last night I broke the seal
On a Jim Beam decanter
That looks like Elvis
I soaked the label off
A Flintstone jelly bean jar

I cleared us off a place
On that one little table
That you left us
And pulled me up a big old piece of floor.

I pulled the head off Elvis
Filled Fred up to his Pelvis
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is Gone
And so are you

'Round about ten
We all got to talkin'
About Graceland, Bedrock, and such
The conversation finally turned
To women
But they said they didn't get around too much

Elvis said find 'em young
And Fred said old fashioned girls are fun
Yabba Dabba Doo
The King is gone
And so are you

Later on it finally hit me
That you wouldn't be a comin' home no more
'Cuz this time I know you won't forgive me
Like all of them other times before

Then I broke Elvis' nose
Pourin' the last drop from his toes
Yabba dabba doo
The King is gone
And so are you
Yabba dabba doo
The King is gone
And so are you

Last night I broke the seal
On a Jim Beam Decanter
That looks like Elvis
I soaked the label off
A Flintstone jelly bean jar....
