Elvis Presley - My BoyElvis gives a convincing performance full of strength and passion.Recorded: 1973/12/13, first released on "Good Times" album 1974 (Words&Music: B. Martin / P. Coulter)Lyrics: You're sleeping son, I know But, really, this can't wait I wanted to explain Before it gets too late For your mother and me Love has finally died This is no happy home But God knows how I've tried
Because you're all I have, my boy You are my life, my pride, my joy And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy
I know it's hard to understand Why did we ever start? We're more like strangers now Each acting out a part I have laughed, I have cried I have lost every game Taken all I can take But I'll stay just the same
Because you're all I have, my boy You are my life, my pride, my joy And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy Sleep on, you haven't heard a word
Perhaps it's just as well Why spoil your little dreams Why put you through the hell Life is no fairytale As one day you will know But now you're just a child I'll stay her and watch you grow
Because you're all I have, my boy You are my life, my pride, my joy And if I stay, I stay because of you, my boy ...

I'm not so sure he gave up. If you'll recall, many people have said that he was actually having a renewed outlook in life and was trying to get in shape again and get back to where he was before.:)

He gave up because he lost what he loved more than anything. What money does not buy, His family.Without their love he had nothing.Being a family
