| Elvis Presley – Jailhouse Rock Lyrics

Hmm, I think there is more sinister stuff under the surface of this song and lots of double entendres. Elvis certainly did not write it, and most probably had no idea about any of the meaning's.
Obviously there's the "Number forty-seven said to number three" verse, but isn't the title a euphemism for shagging. Also, "The Purple Gang" were sex cases either, rapists, peadohiles or homosexuals (1950’s, hey) but someone state side can confirm or shoot this down.
Aynone know what "The sad sack" is? |

I always thought of it as a cracking song and its seen as one of the classics/standards. Then I heard that its actually about the guy waiting in a car with his girl on the eve of her 16th birthday, waitin for midnight, so then its legal for him to get his end away. Now reading the full lyric, I'd say it was correct. |

Hmm, I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Mary McCartney (Macca's better looking daughter). She's in the video and PW was supposed to be enjoying a "special" friendship with her at the time. |
