Lyrics

King of the World

Well, just the other day, I took a walk around the clay
Just to see what I could find, and I found
A couple trees to hide behind, a jungle gym and some piece of mind

When I saw that swing set,
It reminded me of you, yes it's true
I remembered how you'd swing me, and I felt like the King of world

I'm the King of the world when I'm with you, yes it's true
Even though we go our separate ways,
I know we'll never part, not me and you
I'm the King of the world when I'm with you, yes it's true
I'm only a King when I'm with you

I'd haberdash til you'd caterwaul,
Wakin' up the whole damn neighborhood
But we'd make up when you got back home, even if it took four or five days

Yea, you and I never got along,
But we tried our best and we give it all we could
Our high's was high as our low's was low, kinda felt a bit like royalty

I'm the King of the world when I'm with you, yes it's true
Even though we go our separate ways,
I know we'll never part, not me and you
I'm the King of the world when I'm with you, yes it's true
I'm only a King when I'm with you
I'm only a King when I'm with you
I'm only a King…..
when I'm with you
