billy & shannon - king of soul lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
he was 33 when he lost his light
didn’t get to say goodbye to his mom or wife
taken from this world too soon, from his motel room
we’re wishin’ that a change is gonna come

[verse 2]
he was born by the river in a little tent
and just like the river, he’s been running ever since
running from his demons and his own ident-ty
just wishin’ that a change is gonna come

[verse 3]
he began his career in the churches of chicago
singing songs with the soul stirrers not knowing where he’ll go
after touring down the south, tempted by the devil’s music
he can’t wait for the change that’s gonna come

[verse 4]
after you sent me became his number one hit
after finding fame in the music biz
after demolishing segregation; bringing peace
inspiring all the little kids

[bridge]
the king of soul his tale should be told
with his eternal kindness and heart of gold
he helped to bring good in a once darkened world
but we’re still waiting for a change to come
