about

Elvis is Life

lyrics

I’ve got several years of weight under my belt
Just another notch of long lost time to tell
They go by fast and they go by slow
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

Grandma’s planting little baby seeds
She’s working on untiring hand and knee
Building a good life, prosper and grow
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

And Elvis sings a song and cares for me
Just simple words that always sound so sweet
It’s one for the money, two for the show
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

Mary Anna travelled over land and sea
She said “It’s just a little treck for a winged bird like me,
I’m not one to stay still, I don’t breathe out slow”
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

Kitty stirs her watched pot for a while
The rising steam it settles on her smile
She thinks when I’m done here
I’ll have nothing to show
So it goes, so it goes so it goes

And Elvis sings a song and cares for me
Just simple words that always sound so sweet
It’s one for the money, two for the show
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

And Elvis sings a song and cares for me
Just simple words that always sound so sweet
It’s one for the money, two for the show
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes
So it goes, so it goes, so it goes

Teresa Duffy-Richards Melbourne, Australia

Teresa Duffy-Richards writes songs steeped in the vast traditions of Folk and Country music accompanied by banjo, dobro and electric guitar reminiscent of Neil Young and the catalytic classic rock that informed much of her teenage years. But ultimately it is the timeless song writing of old world and 20th century troubadours and Tennessee reared yodellers, that inspires much of her work. ... more
