Merry Christmas, Elvis – Honoring the King of Rock ’n’ Roll | Written by James McQueen

*"Merry Christmas, Elvis"* is a classic Christmas song written by James McQueen (Mac) in loving memory of Elvis, the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. In 2015, James uploaded a video on YouTube in which he shared: "I'm trying to find someone who loved Elvis, to record the song for Elvis and all the Elvis fans, and give it a good Christmas sound." Now, in 2021, we’ve done our best to make that dream come true, and we hope we’ve succeeded! Enjoy our arrangement, and let us know what you think by leaving a comment below.

Lyrics: Merry Christmas Elvis

It’s a very special Christmas
Down in Memphis tonight

A foot of snow on Graceland
and a million Christmas lights

From the window of the Heartbreak Hotel
you can see the King’s home

A pink Cadillac parked in the back
and the mansion lights are on

It’s a mystery every Christmas
They say no one’s at home

But they can’t explain the sightings
the music or the songs

The songs of a legend
The King of Rock & Roll

In a white jumpsuit for Christmas 
trimmed in diamonds and gold

Merry Christmas, Elvis
from all your fans tonight

Have a very merry Christmas
and may all your Christmasses be whiiiite

interlude -

they say the mansion’s empty
But we know they are wrong

Every Christmas there are sightings
and the Christmas lights are on

If you listen you’ll hear laughter
music and a    song

A legend with a guitar
singing Christmas songs

The songs of a legend
The King of Rock & Roll

In a white jumpsuit for Christmas 
trimmed in diamonds and gold

Merry Christmas, Elvis
from all your fans tonight

May the good Lord bless and keep you
and may all your Christmasses be whiiite
