Elvis Presley Were Gonna Move.
Written by Ken Darby, although Elvis and Vera Matson (Darbys wife) are credited. Elvis recorded it at Radio Recorders on either August 2 or September 24, 1956. It was featured in the movie Love Me Tender. It was released on A Date With Elvis, and Essential Elvis Movies-The First Movies. It is also available on the Jailhouse Rock/Love Me Tender soundtrack compilation, The King of Rock n Roll-The Complete 50s Masters, and
Elvis: The Other Sides-Worldwide Gold Award Hits, which is where this version is from.


Well there's a leak in this old building
Yes, there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home

We got no pane in this old window
We got no pane in this old window
We got no pane in this old window
We're gonna move to a better home

Well there's a hole in the roof where the rain pours in
A hole in the floor where it drops right out again
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better home

Well there's a crack across the ceiling
Yes there's a crack across the ceiling
Well there's a crack across the ceiling
We're gonna find us a better home

Well, We gotta stove without a chimney
We've gotta stove without a chimney
What good's a stove without a chimney?
We're gonna move to a better home

Pulling down window shades is no use at all
The kids and the neighbor can peep right through the wall
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
Well there's a leak in this old building
We're gonna move to a better, move to a better
Move to a better home

  • I'll never ever get tired of hearing this movie song. It's such a very unique, fun, overlooked and underrated song and there's no possible way that anyone could sing this masterpiece as well or better than King Elvis did. Elvis will always be the greatest singer, entertainer and phenomenon. Elvis will also always have the greatest voice and the greatest fans. This video was absolutely perfect in every way, 10 Stars as always Jackie.

  • He is a very Talented man.

  • thank you the outsiders :)

  • Great stuff, lovely beat and full of vitality. I like to play it on piano, boogie-woogie style! Only one King ...

  • I love the bounce and rhythm of this old number from Love Me Tender and occasionally play it on piano boogie-woogie style

  • 2:11 LOOK OUT BELOW LOL

  • The outsiders <3

    they plays this when Johnny and Ponboy comes to the church<3

    but of course, i've heard this one way many times before that because of my gran parents <3

  • @ElvisSacramento I think that Paul McCartney did a really good job on this one, check it on youtube.

  • What a Genius!! Hey does anyone know what genre this falls in...country? but it has another sound to it...? Elvis is the only artist in four Music Halls of Fame...country, rockabilly, rock n roll, and gospel. Of course there's his "pop" music...and those movie songs many of which I thought were fantastic... Am I ready, Home Is Where the heart is, Follow that dream, Not the Marrying kind and so many others... just a genius....no one else can compare.

  • I swear...I keep finding songs I've not heard Elvis sing before! This is a grand song! Thanks so much for giving us so much entertainment...you never fail! 100+ stars! Warmly, Red

  • hey SOADownsnubs your right it did come on the outsiders ! man what a awsome movie and there were alot of elvis songs in that movie thank god for elis AND the outsiders!!!!
