Elvis Presley King of the Whole Wide WorldWritten by Ruth Batchelor and Bob Roberts for Elvis's 1962 movie Kid Galahad, where it was sung over the opening credits. This is the master take #4 that was released on the Kid Galahad EP as the A-side to Home is Where The Heart Is, except the released version deleted the Boots Randolph saxophone at the end of the song. This version of the song is available on Out in Hollywood (FTD), The Kid Galahad soundtrack (FTD), and the Kid Galahad/Girls! Girls! Girls! Soundtrack compilation, which is where this version is from.

Nov 19, 2008 - This has always been one of my most favorite Elvis movie songs. This song should be way, way, way better known than it is. I've always loved the movie "Kid Galahad". This is yet another absolutely perfect video from you, 10 Stars.

Nov 19, 2008 - Yes, Elvis did a song called "Trouble" in King Creole that has the lines "I'm evil, so don't mess around with me"; he says it several times in the song; it starts of "If you're looking for trouble, you came to the right place"
