That's Why - John Gorka[00:00:00]
He was born a man he died a myth[00:00:15]
The man part left and the rest stayed with[00:00:19]
One part vision one part dream[00:00:23]
Partly mirror and partly screen[00:00:27]
That's why why they say he never died[00:00:30]
The fat man's gone the thin one stayed[00:00:44]
Still flashy in that gold lame[00:00:47]
Lick his back and press him down[00:00:51]
Mail him to another town[00:00:55]
That's why why they say he still alive[00:00:58]
Things got hot in the styles he mixed[00:01:12]
Did you see him move in '56[00:01:16]
Gun smoke over the Sullivan show[00:01:20]
Shot waist up from Tupelo[00:01:23]
The Colonel's army took the soul[00:01:34]
That went by the name of King Creole[00:01:38]
And he's gone gone gone[00:01:41]
He's left this life he's left this stage[00:01:49]
He's left the building but not the age[00:01:53]
We asked too much we took his best[00:01:56]
Couldn't let him live can't let him rest[00:01:59]
That's why why they say he never died[00:02:03]
It's America's own strange disease[00:02:34]
How we merchandise our tragedies[00:02:38]
If I invoke his name in vain[00:02:42]
Then too I share in all the blame[00:02:45]
For why why they say he's still alive[00:02:49]
