Lyrics for King Of The World by Steely Dan:
| | | Artist: | Steely Dan |
| | Album: | Countdown To Ecstasy | | Track: | King Of The World | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 85 | | | | Lyrics: | Hello one and all; was it you I used to know?
Can't you hear me call on this old ham
radio?
All I've got to say, I'm alive and feeling fine
Should 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 won't take your bread; I don't need no helping hand
I can't be no savage; I
can't be no highwayman
Show me where you are; you and I can spend this day
Driving in my
car through the ruins of Santa Fe
[Chorus]
I'm reading last years papers,
although I don't know why
Assassins, cons and rapers might as well die
When you come
around, no more plain 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 till
Saturday
No marigolds in the promised land
There's a hole in the ground where they
used to grow
Any man left of the Rio Grande
Is the king of the world, king of the world as
far as I know | | | |
