King's Call |
It was a rainy night the night the king went down |
Everybody was crying it seemed like sadness had surrounded the town |
Me I went to the liquor store |
And I bought a bottle of wine and a bottle of gin |
I played his records all night |
Drinking with a close, close friend |
Now some people say that that ain’t right |
And some people say nothing at all |
But even in the darkest of night |
You can always hear the king’s call |
You can always hear the king’s call |
Well they put him away in Memphis |
Six feet beneath the clay |
Everybody was crying |
Everybody said it was a plain grey day |
Me I went to the liquor store |
And I bought another bottle of wine and another bottle of gin |
I played his records all night |
And I got drunk all over again |
Now some people say that that ain’t right |
(That ain’t right) |
And some people say nothing at all |
(I say nothing) |
But even in the darkest of night |
You could always hear the king’s call |
You could always hear the king’s call |
I wonder if you’re lonesome tonight |
And I’d rather go on hearing your lies |
Than to go on living without you |
Now some people say that that ain’t right |
And some people say nothing at all (I say nothing) |
But even in the darkest of night |
You could always hear the king’s call |
You could always hear the king’s call |
You could always hear the king’s call |
Now the stage is bare and I’m standing here |
They might as well bring the curtain down |
I cried the night the king died |
