Chart History
From the album Elvis' Golden Records, Hound Dog was a #1 Pop hit for Elvis Presley in 1956.

Songwriter:
Jerry Leiber & Mike Stoller


J's Journal:
This song is based on John 5:24, where Jesus says, "I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life." What more of a guarantee could you ask for? We used to do this song live in 1994-95, but it was called "Never Gonna Doubt God" back then, and it consisted of two verses that repeated three times a piece. That gets monotonous, even in a short song like that. When we decided to record it live for "Hits: The Road," I spruced it up and changed the title and made it so none of the six verses are identical. That make it more exciting for me as well as the listener, because I rewrote the verses the same day we were scheduled to record it live. And I still had those old words ingrained in my mind. I spent much of the trip to Rhode Island that day writing and rehearsing the words. Then we decided not to record till the next night in New York!

Found God
Parody of "Hound Dog" by Elvis Presley
(John 5:24, Luke 23:43, John 11:25, Matthew 7:7, Romans 8:1)

I ain't nothin' but I found God
It took quite a long time
I went knockin' and I found God
In spite of all my crimes
Well, I had several naughty habits
But my faith was genuine
Well, He said to me I'd pass
From death right into life
Yes, He said to me I'd pass
From death right into life
Well, in verse 24 I read it
There In St. John chapter 5
I ain't nothin' but I found God
Christ is bona fide
He came knockin' and I found God
I said, Christ, come inside
Well, I repented of my habits
And I waved those sins goodbye
LEAD
Well, He said to me I'd pass
From death right into life
Yes, He said to me I'd pass
From death right into life
Well, in Luke 23 the robber
Got the same promise as I
LEAD
Well, He said to me I'd pass
From death right into life
You know, He said to me, I'd pass
From death right into life
Well, He said Heaven's automatic
If you place your faith in Christ
You ain't nothin' till you've found God
Find Him while there's time
You keep knockin' till you've found God
Christ, He doesn't hide
Well, it's in 7:7 Matthew
You seek and then you'll find


John 5:24
"I tell you the truth, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be condemned; he has crossed over from death to life."
