1242 – Elvis Presley – American trilogy (1972)

Trata-se de três músicas do século 19 que Elvis regravou juntas. A primeira é Dixie, uma canção popular sobre o sul dos Estados Unidos. A segunda é The Battle Hymn of The Republic, um hino de marcha do Exercito da Uniao durante a guerra civil americana. A terceira é All my trials, uma canção de ninar relacionado aos negros americanos.

A letra:

Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton
Old things they are not forgotten
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland

Oh, I wish I was in Dixie, away, away
In Dixieland I take my stand to live and die in Dixie
'Cause Dixieland, that's where I was born
Early Lord one frosty morning
Look away, look away, look away Dixieland

Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on

So hush little baby
Don't you cry
You know your daddy's bound to die
But all my trials, Lord, will soon be over

Glory, glory hallelujah
His truth is marching on
His truth is marching on
