Elvis Presley You're a Heartbreaker

Elvis Presley You're a Heartbreaker
Written by Charles (Jack) Alvin Sallee. Elvis recorded it December 10, 1954 at Sun Records. The single release did not chart, but it was the first Elvis song for which sheet music was issued. It was the B-side to Milkcow Blues Boogie. It is available on The Sun Sessions CD and The King of Rock 'n' Rock-The Complete 50s Masters, which is where this version is from.

You're a heartbreaker, you're a love faker,
A heartbreaker playing with fire.
You're a tear snatcher, you're a quarrel patcher,
but you can't break my heart anymore,

For I just found someone else who's sure to take your place.
Someone I can always trust in to fill this empty space.
You're a heartbreaker,
you're a love faker,
but you can't break my heart anymore.

You're a smooth talker, you're a real cool walker,
but now you have talked out of turn.
You're a high stepper, you're an eye-catcher,
but you won't catch my glances anymore.

For I just found someone else who's sure to take your place,
someone I can always trust in to fill this empty space.
You're a heartbreaker, you're a love faker,
but you can't break my heart anymore.

You're a heartbreaker, you're a love faker,
A heartbreaker playing with fire.
You're a tear snatcher, you're a quarrel patcher,
but you can't break my heart anymore.

For I've just found someone else who's sure to take your place,
someone I can always trust in to fill this empty space.
You're a heartbreaker, you're a love faker,
but you can't break my heart anymore.

This is a charming record which was part of one of the first Elvis albums, which is where I heard it when I was 12 years old. I still love it, quite a few years on...

Thanks for posting this.

THIS ELVIS AT HIS BEST EARLY MUSIC BY THE KING

[jimrockone]

Pure, pure, beautiful music

[909chuck]

Amazing how much this reminds me of what was beginning to evolve in music then. It sounds a lot like Buddy Holly's West Tex music. Early days of plowing new fields of sound. History and culture growing in youth, post war. Breathe it in and the time machine rolls you back. Yes. . .

@bloobear1 "Some" celebrities were full of themselves, no caring for those who put the coins in their pocket and not true to their craft. Elvis was not a celebrity. Elvis was real person who overcame great adversities and game himself to us. Elvis Presley was passionate about United States of America, did not "shirk" duty. Elvis sang because it was his "purpose" and because he enjoyed it, and my enjoyment of Elvis began 1950s, listening to the forty-five records on scratchy player.

@ElvisPresleyLand Yes antique sound but that's it's charm as he didn't have to rely on big production. Great talent with great backing musicians too. Later material not a patch on his early stuff

[bloobear1]

For me this is the REAL Elvis. He deviated away from what made him a legend so much when he started to wear those awful white cat suits with the fringes on. You could say that he matured a bit with his later material but I feel that he didn’t inject it with enough raw rock n roll from time to time but for the exception of Way On Down. My dad was a teenager in the 1950’s and I must say I’m a bit envious. Respect to Elvis too for being a man and doing his duty in the army unlike some ‘John Wayne’

Now thats some sweet rockabilly!
