No Elvis, unfortunately, but there is of course the ancient Jewish melody
"I Can't Get No Hamentaschen," which the Stones later turned into a hit
rock song with a similar name.  I think Schlock Rock resurrected that
one.  Hope this may help.  If I'm wrong on the details, someone else on
the list will know, I'm sure.
