I was out on the golf course, a guy came riding out in a golf cart and said, Did you know that Elvis died? And I just said, Well, there you go. It was like I had kinda been expecting it. Mac Davis cartdieelvis Change image and share on social
I still have an old painting the Colonel gave me. It was the first time the Colonel had been back to the Hilton since Elvis had passed away. Mac Davis backcolonelelvis Change image and share on social
I met the Colonel when Elvis was recording some song I'd written for one of his movies. Elvis was just having fun with the gang and all the Memphis boys and Colonel Parker was sitting over here in like a theater seat. Mac Davis boycolonelelvis share on social
I'm sure that Elvis was happy for me. I think he was the kind of guy that enjoyed other people's success, especially if he had something to do with it. Mac Davis elvisenjoyguy Change image and share on social

One of my real goals was to hear someone whistling a song I'd written. Mac Davis goalhearreal Change image and share on social
If it was just me and Elvis one on one, which only happened once or twice in the times that I did see him, it was a really comfortable. He was a cool guy. Easy laugh, nice guy. Mac Davis comfortablecooleasy Change image and share on social
Don't Cry Daddy is a pretty sad song. He got to the end of it and it was just real quiet and Elvis says, I'm gonna cut that someday for my daddy. And, by God, he did. He lived up to his word. Mac Davis crycutdaddy Change image and share on social
First time I saw Elvis was at the Lubbock County fairgrounds in Lubbock, Texas. He was on the back end of a truck. There was about 1500 screaming kids. Mac Davis backcountyelvis Change image and share on social
There was a chance for me to write one song for the section where Elvis sat in his black leather outfit and sang the old hits. At eight oclock the next morning I had written Memories. Mac Davis blackchanceelvis Change image and share on social
