About The Song
Stuck on You” is a song by Elvis Presley, his first hit single after his two-year stint in the US Army. He recorded the song during March 1960, and the single was released within weeks and went to number one on the chart in late-April 1960, becoming his first number-one single of the 1960s and thirteenth overall. The song was written by Aaron Schroeder and J. Leslie McFarland and published by Gladys Music, Elvis Presley’s publishing company. The song has a relaxed tempo and features a simple melody with a catchy chorus. The lyrics describe the singer’s devotion to his lover, comparing his love for her to the embrace of a grizzly bear and stating that he is “stuck like glue”. The song’s success helped to re-establish Presley’s chart dominance in the wake of his military service.
Lyrics
You can shake an apple off an apple tree
Shake-a, shake- sugar,
But you'll never shake me
Uh-uh-uh
No-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue,
Stick because I'm
Stuck on you
I'm gonna run my fingers thru your long black hair
Squeeze you tighter than a grizzly bear
Uh-uh-uh,
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you
Hide in the kitchen, hide in the hall
Ain't gonna do you no good at all
'Cause once I catch ya and the kissin' starts
A team o' wild horses couldn't tear us apart
Try to take a tiger from this daddy's side
That's how love is gonna keep us tied
Uh-uh-uh
Yes-sir-ee, uh, uh
I'm gonna stick like glue
Stick, because I'm
Stuck on you
