Elvis Done Left the Building Again


Well it all started when I was twenty-one
And I saw Elvis buying hot dog buns
At the B-Quik in Starkville, Mississippi

Well I had my camera out in the truck
But by the time I got back I was outta luck
He was gone, but was he ever really there at all?

	Inquiring minds want to know
	I just wish my feet didn't move so slow
	Everytime I show up on the scene
	Elvis done left the building again

I saw an Elvis sighting on the cover of the Star
In  Mississippi town that wasn't too far
So I bought the paper and I took myself a drive

When I pulled into town there was nobody there
But I could feel something strange in the air
It was a ghost town -- a perfect home for the King

	Inquiring minds want to know
	I just wish my feet didn't move so slow
	Everytime I show up on the scene
	Elvis done left the building again

Well I ain't seen nothing since that day
But I'm always hearing other people say
How they see Elvis everywhere these days

So I jump in my truck and head on out
And my family's starting to have their doubts
But I won't stop till I see him again

	Inquiring minds want to know
	I just wish my feet didn't move so slow
	Everytime I show up on the scene
	Elvis done left the building again
