Words and Music, Jack Smith

lyrics

I got to thinkin’ just the other night
If I was The King Of The World
I’d turn things round I’d do things right
If I was The King Of The World
I’d always be cool, I'd never be mean
I’d have the finest kingdom that was ever seen
And all the pretty girls’d wanna be my queen
If I was The King Of The World

All of the children would laugh and play
If I was The King Of The World
Nobody’d have to worry ‘bout the judgment day
If I was The King Of The World
There’d be food and clothes and schools for free
No more sickness and misery
And everybody’d know it was because of me
If I was The King Of The World

The ancient nations would all be one
If I was The King Of The World
No more wars and no more guns
If I was The King Of The World
An end to religion goodbye to the pope
Old man despair born again as hope
And everybody high on the king’s good dope
If I was The King Of The World
