Robert Earl Keen - If I Were King Lyrics






If I were the king of this old crazy world
I'm telling you there'd be some changes made
In my golden crown, I'd lead the big parade
If I were king, there'd be some changes made

I'd take you from your prison, and set you on a throne
Instead of threads of linen, you'd wear a satin gown
Upon my throne so safe and sound, you'd never be afraid
If I were king, there'd be some changes made

I'd take you from your prison, and set you on a throne
Instead of threads of linen, you'd wear a satin gown
Upon my throne so safe and sound, you'd never be afraid

If I were king there'd be some changes made
I ain't no king I'm just a fool, but in my masquerade
If I were king, there'd be some changes made

    Thanks for putting this on for all of us to share. It brings back wonderful memories of just Robert on a stage, playing, singing and telling stories. I'm still faithful, and I still attend as many shows as I can make, but can't help longing for those old days once in a while!
