The Ballad of Jimmy King |
| so he wakes up under this lonely bridge his home |
| an old scruffy jacket and a hut is all that he owns |
| he dreams to sleep in a house |
| where his wife covers him with love |
| his children are playing hide-and-seek in the backyard |
| he goes to the restaurant his empty stomach leads him there |
| but the owner screams to call the police — get out of here |
| he dreams to sit at a rich table where the waitress brings him some wine |
| he lights up a cigar and covers his eyes from the sunshine |
| Jimmy in your world you are the king |
| Jimmy in your world you don’t have to care about a thing |
| and you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown |
| everybody seems to know you in the whole town |
| so he goes to the place where all the artists meet |
| the musicians are singing and dancing in the street |
| he dreams to stand in the spotlight |
| and everybody loves him |
| he sings songs of an old poor ma having a dream |
| Jimmy in your world you are the king |
| Jimmy in your world you don’t have to care about a thing |
| and you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown |
| everybody seems to know you in the whole town |
| Jimmy in your world you are the king |
| Jimmy in your world you don’t have to care about a thing |
| and you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown |
| everybody seems to know you in the whole town |
