Name the Elvis songs with a color mentioned
in the title. Don't cheat by looking them up.
Please list no more than three. I was going to
look them up but I thought I would let all of
you do the work. Any song that Elvis only sang
a line or two from is allowed. Sorry if this is a
silly post but it's 5 o'clock in the morning,I can't
sleep,and I wanted to post something.

Thanks,
Kevin

As Elvis recorded tons of songs with the color blue in the title I got thinking
of other colors and the 3 that spring straight to mind are Green Green Grass
Of Home, Long Black Limousine and Yellow Rose Of Texas. Can anyone think of
other songs but not blue? I can think of another Green one but im restricted
to 3.

Go ahead and name it Andy. If you think you
can name them all,go ahead and do it. I'm
curious to find out just how many Elvis did
make with a color in the title. I'm just too lazy
to look them up. If anybody else knows,please
list them.

I think Andy means "Just A Little Bit of Green", from the "Elvis Back
in Memphis" album.
