i was a king – california lyrics
well, i left my home and my one true love
east of the ohio river
my father said we’d never wed
for i had me no gold nor silver
but my darling dear, please shed no tears
but i think that it’s fair to warn you
that i return to claim your hand
as the king of california
over deserts hot and mountains cold
i traveled the indian country
whispering your name under lonesome skies
remembering my only company
but my darling dear, please have no fear
for i think that it’s fair to warn you
that i return to claim your hand
as the king of california
i went up from sacramento town
to the sierra gold fields
and i worked my stake on a riverbank
dreaming just how a rich man feels
now my darling dear, listen here
for i think that it’s fair to warn you
that i return to claim your hand
as the king of california
now, the dead man’s lying at my feet
who tried to steal my earnings
yet, i still recall your tender kiss
though this bullet in my chest is burning
but my darling dear, please have no fear
for i think that it’s fair to warn you
that i return to claim your hand
as the king of california
that i return to claim your hand
as the king of california
