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
|
|

King of the World
