    Yes, as a matter of fact, he did.

    Problem is, it's pretty obscure as to where and in what album.

    Pretty Woman is listed in this "Elvis Presley Unknown Album Lyrics" listing:

    I'm a huge Beatles and Elvis fan. Also a musician of 35 years. He covered Yesterday, Something, Hey Jude, Get Back and Lady Madonna. Elvis didn't dislike the Beatles at all. He respected their songwriting capabilities. And the Beatles were inspired by Elvis very early in their career. I'm almost sure that they covered his songs on stage, but never recorded them in the studio. Elvis liked just about everyone.

    "Oh, Pretty Woman" is a song, released in 1964, which was a worldwide hit for Roy Orbison. Recorded on the Monument Records label in Nashville, Tennessee, it was written by Orbison and Bill Dees.

    No, Elvis never sang "Pretty Woman" He sang "Mean Woman Blues" and "Hard Headed Woman", but not "Pretty Woman"

    Only people to cover that song was Van Halen, John Mellencamp, Rockapella, and 2 Live Crew (who basically sampled and took the chorus and made their own verses).

    Elvis Costello yes. The above link gives credit to Elvis for writing it which he didn't. I have to say no, even though I could of sworn he did.

    got a big Elvis collection and I never heard him sing that song and its not on any albums here.
