Well....
6
I walk up to the mike and and then I shake my hips
7
I take a deep breath and put a snare on my lips
8
See me on the street you wouldn't know my name
9
But imitating Elvis is my claim to fame
10
So when you put my imitation name in lights
11
There'll be imitation good rockin' tonight
12
Cuz I'm an an Elvis imitator and I just can't stop
13
Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top
14
Imitate the way he talked, the way he smiled
15
I throw away my scarf and make the crowd go wild
16
This imitation Elvis may not be the King
17
But baby I'm the next best thing
18
Singing Viva Las Vegas and the G.I. Blues
19
Won't you Love Me Tender in my Blue Suede Shoes
20
Well let me be your teddy bear, if you must
21
Oh baby Please Surrender, 'cause I need your touch
22
Well if you feelin' lonely, need a place to dwell
23
Come on down to imitation heartbreak hotel

We're gonna rock (rock rock rock)

Ooooh we're gonna rock (rock rock rock)

Ooooh we're gonna rock (rock rock rock)

Ooooh we're gonna rock (rock rock rock)
29
Yeah my gold lamee cape and my sequined suit
30
Pompadou haircut and my high-heeled boots
31
Imitating Elvis is the only way
32
I can make it through my imitation day
33
I know this rocking music can't be denied
34
'Cause I was imitating him before he died
35
Well I'm an an Elvis imitator and I just can't stop
36
Imitating Elvis from the bottom to the top
37
I imitate the way he walked, the way he smiled
38
I throw away my scarf and make the crowd go wild
39
This imitation Elvis may not be the king
40
But baby I'm the next best thing
