Lady Loves Me remained unreleased by RCA for twenty years until the 1983 LP
Elvis - A Legendary Performer, Volume 4. Sid Tepper and Roy C.
Bennett are the song's composers.
Lyrics:
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me not
She loves me, she loves me, she loves me
The lady loves me and it shows in spite of the way
she turns up her nose
I'm her ideal, her heart's desire, under that ice
she's burning like fire
She'd like to cuddle up to me, she's playing hard
to get
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
The gentleman has savoir-faire as much as an
elephant or a bear
I'd like to take him for a spin back to the zoo to
visit his kin
He's got about as much appeal as a soggy cigarette
The lady loathes him but he doesn't know it yet
The lady's got a crush on me
The gentleman's crazy obviously
The lady's dying to be
kissed
The gentleman needs a psychiatrist
I'd rather kiss a rattlesnake or play Russian
roulette
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
She's falling fast, she's on the skids
Both of his heads are flipping their lids
Tonight she'll hold me in her arms
I'd rather be holding hydrogen bombs
Will someone tell this Romeo I'm not his Juliet
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
She wants me
Like poison ivy
Needs me
Like a hole in the head
Anyone can see she's got it bad
He's mad!
The gentleman is an egotist
I'm simply aware I'm hard to resist
He's one man I could learn to hate
How's about having dinner at eight
I'd rather dine with Frankenstein in a
moonlight tęte-a-tęte
The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet
Oh, yes, she loves me
Dig that shrinking violet
Mmm, she really loves me
Here's one gal you'll never get
She lo, lo, loves me
Would you like to make a bet
I said the lady loves me
The gentleman's all wet
