Shoppin' Around
download
(Tepper / Bennett /
Schroeder)
Information:
Elvis sang Shoppin’ Around in his 1960 film G.I. Blues.
The song was originally recorded on April 27, 1960, at RCA’s Hollywood
studios, but that version was not used for the film or on record. It finally
appeared on the 1980 LP Elvis Aron Presley. The version that was used
in the film and on record was recorded at Radio Recorders on May 6,
1960. Take #7 was selected by RCA for release. The film version had added
horns. Shoppin’ Around was written by Sid Tepper, Roy C. Bennett and Aaron
Schroeder.
Lyrics:
You got the huggin'est arms, the thrillin'est eyes
You're just my style and you're just the right
size
Gonna stop uh, shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop shoppin'
around 'cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
On the very first time you touched my lips
Took my little red book and tore it to bits
Ain't gonna be searchin' no more
I'm gonna stop shoppin'
around 'cause I found the girlie I’m lookin' for
1. Ain't no other dolly I’m wantin' to hold
Hey, hey, baby, I really am
sold on you, ooh, ooh
Such a pretty little package I never did see
Gonna wrap you up and take you home with me, I'm
thrilled like never before
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around 'cause I found the girlie I'm
lookin' for
1. (repeat)
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop, uh… shoppin' around
I'm gonna stop shoppin' around
