King Of The World |
Hello one and all |
Was it you I used to know |
Can’t you hear me call |
On this old ham radio |
All I got to say I’m alive and feeling fine |
If you come my way |
You can share my poison wine |
No marigolds in the promised land |
There’s a hole in the ground |
Where they used to grow |
Any man left on the Rio Grande |
Is the king of the world |
As far as I know |
I don’t want your bread |
I don’t need your helping hand |
I can’t be no savage |
I can’t be no highwayman |
Show me where you are |
You and I will spend this day |
Driving in my car |
Through the ruins of Santa Fe |
No marigolds in the promised land |
There’s a hole in the ground |
Where they used to grow |
Any man left on the Rio Grande |
Is the king of the world |
As far as I know |
I’m reading last year’s papers |
Although I don’t know why |
Assassins cons and rapers |
Might as well die |
If you come around |
No more pain and no regrets |
Watch the sun go brown |
Smoking cobalt cigarettes |
There’s no need to hide |
Taking things the easy way |
If I stay inside |
I might live til Saturday |
No marigolds in the promised land |
There’s a hole in the ground |
Where they used to grow |
Any man left on the Rio Grande |
Is the king of the world |
As far as I know |
