"Elvis has left the building!" is a phrase that was often used by public address announcers following Elvis Presley concerts to disperse audiences who lingered in hopes of an Elvis encore. Al Dvorin, a concert announcer who traveled with Elvis throughout the performer's career, made the phrase famous when his voice was captured on many recordings of Elvis' performances.
Ladies and gentlemen: Elvis has just left the building
Elvis has just left the building -- Those are his footprints, right there Elvis has just left the building -- To climb up that heavenly stair
He gave away Cadillacs once in a while; Had sex in his underpants, Yes, he had style! Bell-bottom jump-suits? That's them in a pile, But he don't need 'em now, 'Cause he's makin' Jesus smile!
Elvis has just left the building -- (There he goes!) Those are his footprints, right there Elvis has just left the building -- To climb up that heavenly stair
The Angels all love him, He brings them relief With droplets of moisture From his handkerchief! Cher'bim 'n ser'phim Whizz over his head -- Jesus, let him come back! We don't want Elvis dead!
So what if he looks like a wart-hog in heat? He knows we all love him -- We'll just watch him eat, So take down the foil From his hotel retreat, And bring back The King For the man in the street!
Elvis has just left the building -- Those are his footprints, right there Elvis has just left the building -- He's up there with Jesus, in a big purple chair

Ladies and gentlemen:
Elvis has just left the building
Elvis has just left the building --
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
To climb up that heavenly stair
He gave away Cadillacs once in a while;
Had sex in his underpants,
Yes, he had style!
Bell-bottom jump-suits?
That's them in a pile,
But he don't need 'em now,
'Cause he's makin' Jesus smile!
Elvis has just left the building --
(There he goes!)
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
To climb up that heavenly stair
The Angels all love him,
He brings them relief
With droplets of moisture
From his handkerchief!
Cher'bim 'n ser'phim
Whizz over his head --
Jesus, let him come back!
We don't want Elvis dead!
So what if he looks like a wart-hog in heat?
He knows we all love him --
We'll just watch him eat,
So take down the foil
From his hotel retreat,
And bring back The King
For the man in the street!
Elvis has just left the building --
Those are his footprints, right there
Elvis has just left the building --
He's up there with Jesus, in a big purple chair
