Album: G.i. Blues
Artist: Elvis Presley
 

(words & music by doc pomus – mort shuman)
I gave my heart
I gave my love
Oh ho, my darling
I am true
Doin’ the best
The best i can
But it’s not good enough for you

I tried so hard
So hard to please
Oh ho, my darling
What more can i do
Doin’ the best
The best i can
But it’s not good enough for you

You know i was the kind who’d run
Any time you’d call
I guess i was the only one
Who didn’t mind at all
I’ll be a dreamer
I’ll be a fool
Oh ho, my darling
My whole life through
Doin’ the best
The best i can
But it’s not good enough for you

You know i was the kind who’d run
Any time you’d call
I guess i was the only one
Who didn’t mind at all
I’ll be a dreamer
I’ll be a fool
Oh ho, my darling
My whole life through
Doin’ the best
The best i can
But it’s not good enough for you
But it’s not good enough for you
