Wherefore Art Thou, Elvis? Lyrics

	I cut my teeth on the stone of a teenage romance
	I was the salt of the earth, I was hard, and the last of the independents
	And the breath from my chest I was blowing kerosene
	My lips and fingertips were stone, I wore my heart on my jeans
	I sang the blues like the dogs left too long in the street
	I still sing the blues with the dogs
	And I got half a mind to let it all burn up in this fire
	That's been burning through my veins since I first learned to cry
	I'd watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
	I never felt right and never fit in
	Walking in my own skin
	Now I got scars like the number of stars, my mind's full of vipers
	I got the dust of the desert in my bones, coming through the amplifiers
	Between the minor chord fall and the fourth and the fifth
	It's a broken Hallelujah and a pain in my fist
	I wash my hands like the man with the blood on his teeth
	Over and over without relief
	And I got nothing for you darling but a story to tell
	About the rain on the pavement and the sound as it fell
	I'd watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
	I never felt right and never fit in
	Walking in my old man shoes, with my scientist heart
	I got a fever and a beaker and a shot in the dark
	I need a Cadillac ride, I need a soft summer night
	Say a prayer for my soul, Señorita
	Because I've been dying out here in the cold and the snow
	I've got a picture of you, Mama, to remind me of home
	On the hood of a Dodge on a Saturday night
	Say a prayer for my soul, Señorita

	I cut my teeth on the stone of a teenage romance
	I was the salt of the earth, I was hard, and the last of the independents
	And the breath from my chest I was blowing kerosene
	My lips and fingertips were stone, I wore my heart on my jeans
	I sang the blues like the dogs left too long in the street
	I still sing the blues with the dogs
	And I got half a mind to let it all burn up in this fire
	That' s been burning through my veins since I first learned to cry
	I' d watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
	I never felt right and never fit in
	Walking in my own skin
	Now I got scars like the number of stars, my mind' s full of vipers
	I got the dust of the desert in my bones, coming through the amplifiers
	Between the minor chord fall and the fourth and the fifth
	It' s a broken Hallelujah and a pain in my fist
	I wash my hands like the man with the blood on his teeth
	Over and over without relief
	And I got nothing for you darling but a story to tell
	About the rain on the pavement and the sound as it fell
	I' d watch this whole night come down and never miss her again
	I never felt right and never fit in
	Walking in my old man shoes, with my scientist heart
	I got a fever and a beaker and a shot in the dark
	I need a Cadillac ride, I need a soft summer night
	Say a prayer for my soul, Se orita
	Because I' ve been dying out here in the cold and the snow
	I' ve got a picture of you, Mama, to remind me of home
	On the hood of a Dodge on a Saturday night
	Say a prayer for my soul, Se orita

	I cut my teeth on the stone of a teenage romance
