|
Down along these hillsides
|
Many miles ago
|
Lived a man of vision child
|
But little did I know
|
He was always talking child
|
About the heart and soul
|
'Til one day some pharaoh came
|
And offered up his dole
|
|
Chorus:
|
In the valley
|
In the valley of the kings
|
In the valley
|
The valley of the kings
|
The kings
|
|
Well he lives up in a tower now
|
High upon a hill
|
People come from miles around
|
Hoping that he will
|
Turn their dreams right into gold
|
Turn their worlds around
|
And if he does he'll keep it all
|
And stash it underground
|
|
