Elvis Presley I Gotta Know
Written by Paul Evans and Matt Williams. Elvis recorded it April 4, 1960 at RCA's Nashville Studios. The single released #20 on Billboard's Hot 100 chart during its 11-week stay and became a million seller. It was the B-side to Are You Lonesome Tonight. It is available on Elvis' Golden Records Volume 3; Elvis: Worldwide 50 Gold Award Hits; and From Nashville to Memphis: The Essential 60s Masters, which is where this version is from.
Get up in the mornin' feelin' mighty weak
A tossin' and a turnin' well, I had ain't had no sleep
Oh baby, what road's our love taking?
To romance or heartbreaking'
Won't you say which way you're gonna go
I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know
Nine and nine make fourteen,
four and four makenine
The clock is strikin' thirteen
I think I lost my mind
You know it's gettin' aggravatin'
How long can I keep waitin'
Tell me if you love me yes or no,
I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know
Oh, how much I need you
Have pity on this heart of mine
Well, if you need and want me too,
I'll be your one and only till the end of time
Saw the fortune teller, had my fortune read
She sent me to the doctor, who sent me straight to bed
He said I'm lonesome and I'm lovesick
I've got my mind on lipstick
Will you kiss away my cares and woe?
I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know
Oh, how much I need you
Have pity on this heart of mine
But, if you need and want me too,
I'll be your one and only till the end of time
Saw the fortune teller, had my fortune read
She sent me to the doctor, who sent me straight to bed
He said I'm lonesome and I'm lovesick
I've got my mind on lipstick
Will you kiss away my cares and woe?
I gotta know, gotta know, gotta know
