Elvis Presley - Funny How Time Slips Away
Recorded: 1970/06/07, first released on "Elvis Country"
(Words & Music: Donny Mauldin, re-written by Willie Nelson)
Lyrics:
Well hello there,
my it's been a long long time
How am I doin',
oh well I guess I'm doin' fine
It's been so long now and it seems that
It was only yesterday
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
How's your new love,
I hope that he's doin' fine
Heard you told him, yes baby
That you'd love him till the end of time
Well you know, that's the same thing
that you told me
Well it seems like just the other day
Mmm, ain't it funny how time slips away
Gotta go now,
guess I'll see you hanging round
Don't know when though, oh
Never know when I'll be back in town
But I remember what I told you
That in time your gonna pay
Well ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
Yeah, ain't it surprisin' how time slips away
...

Keep your Michael Jacksons (I like him) but Elvis will always be King of Kings, he is a one of, never be anyone even close to him again. I am 68 years old and have loved him all my life. My daughter loves him, and I.ll make sure my grandaughrers know him as well. I was lucky to live in his time he gave me and others so many happy memories
I will be 62 this year and I have loved Elvis since I was 6 and I enjoy this song very much.
Шикарная композиция! Голос Элвиса это что-то необыкновенное! Он как будто перебирает все струны души!
At the age of 75 i never get tired of watching and listening to the king. Elvis is one of the kind and filled my life of joy when i had a life back in the day
He was simply a gift from God. Gifts like him don’t happen often.

I've listened to this man my whole life and he still gets me in the heart with his songs and voice .
I was watching TCM tonight and saw the Elvis concert documentary where Elvis sings this song. It reminded me of what happened to me 35 years ago. August 16, 1977 came and I received a call from Memphis,TN. A man called to offer me a new job with a promotion in Memphis. I asked if I could call him back the next day after I talked to my wife and he said o.k. I got in my car and turned on the radio. That's when I heard the news that Elvis died. We went to Memphis and my life changed for ever more.
Purelistener... I THANK YOU FOR COVERING GREAT SONGS THAT ELVIS DID.. IT'S BEEN SOME TIME NOW, I FOUND YOU. TAKE CARE💞🤗
Country blues and soul all wrapped into one his 1970 studio version of this song is the best of all time
Elvis Presley nailed this classic country song ,,,,Elvis Presley will always be my favorite Mr Songman
the goat pure bliss will listen forever ❤❤❤x
Sound, charisma, rhythm, humor ... It's ELVIS!
I believe Elvis presley was God's Earth Angel. Always helping people a letting his inner light shine.

The comment most people who spent time with him said ..he made them feel like they were the star...he was a special person .
It's a privilege to be an Elvis fan...... we recognise just how much he gives to us. I honestly believe that this man was a gift , from God if there is one. All the emotions are there. Love, Loss,sadness ? loneliness,humanity, hope. Elvis was in touch with the essence of life and was gifted with the means to get this across in song and performance. Even his imperfections were an expression of his humanity and humility. It is not sacrilegious to say that he was Christ like. ...God understands what I mean, frailty yet true love and humanity. Rest in peace, the king.
his voice made any song great
Amazing, beautiful song.Beautiful voice.❤️😍❤️😭❤️😭.
Man what a beautiful man he was such a soul.
Loved the early rock'n'roll years.....but later Elvis proved that he was also the 'King of Ballads'
38 years this August coming Elvis Presley left this world and his many many many adoring fans across the world. I'm only 34 and I listen to his songs and become totally engrossed in them every time I hear them. He is my favourite singer and nothing on earth can rival his incredible singing voice. 38 years. Funny how time slips away, isn't it?

Elvis Presley vår största sångare genom alla tider o människa en gudagåva och vilken röst
I've been an Elvis fan for as long as I can remember and this is one of my favourite Elvis songs. His voice is so soothing at times and so powerful at others. Another of my favourites is "Hurt". I'm so grateful to have lived when Elvis was King. My only regret, not seeing him in person.
My God, il était et restera à jamais le meilleur chanteur, beau, charismatique, et personne ne pourra jamais l'egalisera, Elvis the best et unique dans le monde entier, love forever Elvis 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 💕 Thanks for sharing
Every word is so true
Im black and i say elvis was one of kind lord have mercy rip elvis we miss u a lengend never dies
such a voice, such a range, such a gift, such charisma, such good looks , such a generous soul. Such a shame he had to die young, but the legacy lives on.

This great entertainer and singer not only could moved crowds , he could move clouds ☁️ and stop the rain ☔️! He was extraordinary He was born between midnight 🕛 and dawn on a Tuesday ( like me ) It was bitter cold and the wind was blowing up a storm his dad remembers seen the whole area around his house was lit up with a blue light 💡 and just at that moment when Elvis was born the wind stopped blowing . Elvis had visualized a blue light in his various healings and meditations rather then the usual white light . His mother had said he was born to be a joy to the world 🌎 ( this is fr. a book Elvis’ Search for God ) Blue was fav. color . The blue light symbolizes the purpose and your mission in life . I think Elvis found his mission and his calling and it’s finally happy 😃.
what a great great singer that man was .
This man’s voice cords were made perfect by God Himself just to show the world what He can do to His creations for certain purposes in life!! Thank you Lord for giving Elvis to us to enjoy but yet for a short time!! I know YOU called Elvis Home on August 17,1977!!
The best version of this song ever! 😚
