You’re the Boss (takes 4–8) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

When it comes twistin′ I just got to keep insistin'
Oh, babe you sure do swing
When it comes twistin′ I just got to keep insistin'
Oh daddy hey, you are the king
Baby you've got me beat up and down inside out and across
Oh, yeah!

But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright
Ah! You′re the boss

Hey talkin′ 'bout the days when we ended down the hall romancing
Big daddy Hey! You make the scene
Hmm, talkin′ 'bout dancing and down on romancing
Oh, now baby (yeah), you are the queen
Oh, when push comes to shove, when it comes down to love
You′re a horse
Oh, yeah!

But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright baby, you're the boss


You′re the best of everything
You're a peach, you're a plum
You′re a diamond, you′re a pearl
You're the best of everything
Ah, daddy you′re my man
Baby you're my girl

Now when it comes to knowin′ which way the wind is blowin'
Now baby (mm, tell me), you sure are wise
Yeah! When it comes to knowin′ which way the wind is blowin'
Oh daddy, you take the prize
Baby you're a genius when it comes to cooking up some chili sauce
Oh, yeah!

Oh, but in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright, you′re the boss
You′re the boss
You're the boss
You′re the boss
But in the middle of the night when the moon is shining bright ah, you're the boss
You′re the boss

Hm-mm baby you're the boss
Tell me ′bout it baby, you are the boss
You are the boss
Hm-mm, you're the boss
Hm-mm, baby you're the boss
