From the film "Viva Las Vegas" (1964)
(Sid Tepper / Roy C. Bennett)
Elvis Presley & Ann-Margret - 1964


EP:
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

AM:
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

EP: The lady's got a crush on me
AM: The gentleman's crazy obviously
EP: The lady's dying to be kissed
AM: The gentleman needs a psychiatrist
I'd rather kiss a rattlesnake
Or play Russian roulette
EP: The lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

EP: She's falling fast she's on the skids
AM: Both of his heads are flipping their lids
EP: Tonight she'll hold me in her arms
AM: I'd rather be holding hydrogen bombs
Will someone tell this Romeo
I'm not his Juliette
EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

EP: She wants me
AM: Like poison ivy
EP: Needs me
AM: Like a hole in the head
EP: Anyone can see she's got it bad
AM: Ha, he's mad!

AM: The gentleman is an egotist
EP: I'm simply aware I'm hard to resist
AM: He's one man I could learn to hate
EP: How's about having dinner at eight
AM: I'd rather dine with Frankenstein
In a moonlight tete-a-tete
EP: Ah, the lady loves me, but she doesn't know it yet

EP: Ah yes she loves me
AM: Dig that shrinking violet
EP: Oh she really loves me
AM: Here's one gal you'll never get
EP: She lo-lo-loves me
AM: Would you like to make a bet
EP: I said the lady loves me
AM; The gentleman's all wet
