Key Lyric Phrases
Hound Dog:
They said you was high class
Well, that was just a lie.
You ain't never caught a rabbit
And you ain't no friend of mine.
All Shook Up:
Please don’t ask me what’s on my mind
I’m a little mixed up, but I’m feelin’ fine
When I’m near that girl that I love best
My heart beats so it scares me to death!
