Free Music resources from www.traditionalmusic.co.uk for personal education purposes only KENTUCKY RAIN - ELVIS PRESLEY (Words and music by Eddie Rabbit - Dick Heard) Seven lonely days and a dozen towns ago I reached out one night and you were gone Don't know why you'd run, what you're running to or from All I know is I want to bring you home So I'm walking in the rain, thumbin' for a ride On this lonely Kentucky backroad I've loved you much too long; my love's too strong To let you go, never knowing what went wrong. Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through With the rain in my shoes, searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain, in the cold Kentucky rain. Showed your photograph to some old gray bearded men Sitting on a bench outside a general store They said "Yes, she's been here" But their memory wasn't clear. Was it yesterday? No, wait the day before. Finally got a ride, with a preacher man who asked, "Where you bound on such a cold, dark afternoon?" As we drove on through the rain, as he listened I explained And he left me with a prayer that I'd find you. Kentucky rain keeps pouring down, And up ahead's another town that I'll go walking through With the rain in my shoes, searchin for you In the cold Kentucky rain, in the cold Kentucky rain.

Elvisbrucefeaturefromstonepo
How an encounter that never happened might have helped to change history if it had By Shawn Poole Ever since he was a child, Bruce Springsteen has been strongly influenced by the artistry of Elvis Presley. Over the years, the “E Street”/”Elvis” connection has remained strong. Most recently, Springsteen participated along with E Street Band members Nils Lofgren and Patti Scialfa in the Elvis: Viva Las Vegas television special (now on DVD in the U.S., where it hit #1 on the Billboard DVD sales chart), and its accompanying soundtrack album. E Streeters Garry Tallent and Max Weinberg also were on hand at this year’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony to induct Elvis’ original drummer and bassist, D.J. Fontana and the late Bill Black. Presley was only forty-two years old when his life tragically ended. “They found him slumped up against the drain,” Bruce Springsteen would later sing of his fallen idol, “with a whole lot of trouble running through his veins; Bye-bye, Johnny; Johnny, bye-bye; You didn’t have to die; you didn’t have to die.” While Elvis’ premature decline and death did absolutely nothing to stop his immense cultural influence, it did rob the world of many more years of music from this great artist. It also ensured that Bruce Springsteen would never get another chance to meet the man who initially inspired his own musical career. (He had two chances: one famous unofficial chance when he jumped the wall at Graceland in 1976 and one not-as-famous in 1977 when local concert promoters offered Springsteen an official chance to meet Elvis backstage before his final Philadelphia concert.) But what if Bruce had gotten to meet Elvis before August 16, 1977? Might things have turned out any differently for either or both of them, as well as the many other lives they affected? In this work of speculative fiction, Shawn Poole ponders the possibilities, poignantly reminding us of the promise and potential that tragically disappeared in that long ago summer.
