When I was a child, ladies and gentlemen, I was a dreamer. I read comic books, and I was the hero of the comic book. I saw movies, and I was the hero in the movie. So every dream I ever dreamed, has come true a hundred times... I learned very early in life that "Without a song, the day would never end; without a song, a man ain't got a friend; without a song, the road would never bend - without a song." So I keep singing a song. Goodnight. Thank you.

Since my baby left me, I've found a new place to dwell, down at the end of Lonely Street at Heartbreak Hotel.

If you cry when you're in love, it sure ain't no disgrace.

How can you lose something you never had, I tell myself when I'm feeling sad.

It's human nature to gripe, but I'm going ahead and doing the best I can.

I think I have something tonight that's not quite correct for evening wear. Blue suede shoes.

The image is one thing and the human being is another...it's very hard to live up to an image.
