king of the world þarký sözü

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
