Elvis Presley-Kentucky Rain

A photo complentation set to one of the King’s greatest songs.
Lyrics:Seven lonely days
And a dozen towns ago
I reached out one night
And you were gone
Dont know why youd run,
What youre running to or from
All I know is I want to bring you home

So Im walking in the rain,
Thumbing for a ride
On this lonely kentucky backroad
Ive loved you much too long
And my loves too strong
To let you go, never knowing
What went wrong

Kentucky rain keeps pouring down
And up aheads another town
That Ill go walking thru
With the rain in my shoes,
Searchin for you
In the cold kentucky rain,
In the cold kentucky rain

Showed your photograph
To some old gray bearded man
Sitting on a bench
Outside a genral store
They said yes, shes been here
But their memory wasnt clear
Was it yesterday,
No, wait the day before

So I finly got a ride
With a preacher man who asked
Where you bound on such a dark afternoon?
As we drove on thru the rain
As he listened I explained
And he left me with a prayer
That Id find you

    Love the piccy @ 3:20-Elvis as a fly boy & polished like Cary Grant. I always loved Cary Grants style. Elvis had a wild hair on his but he was a bit of Ronald Reagan in the cowboy hat to a bit of James Dean in the Car & no one looked better in the American style suit. His songs were simple but filled with emotion. I also think Pricilla reminds me of the actress Rita Skeeter less gothic in her role as Queen Mab @ Hogwarts she was doing a Monroe spinoff so its way cool & hysterical! Mabs ROCKS

    I’m a beatles guy but i love this song which imo is his best and one of my all time faves. Such atmospheric lyrics/melody topped off by Elvis’ amazing voice. Many of his stuff from this period is awesome such as in the ghetto and seperate ways.
