jim croce - king's song lyrics
written by – jim croce
he struggled so hard to be king
working night and day
dreaming of only one thing
never a holiday
somewhere along the way
he forgot she was only a girl
now his kingdom has fallen
and it’s really quite a tragic tale
cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
but the queen claimed he built her a jail
he struggled so hard to be king
he wanted everything
he built her a house by the sea
just to keep her in
somewhere along the way
he forgot she needed a friend
now his kingdom has fallen
and it’s really quite a tragic tale
cause he built a castle to harbor his queen
and the queen claimed he built her a jail
it happened so quickly before he could know
she was gone, far gone
far from the castle, the diamonds and things
she had worn to the ball
there was a note that she carefully wrote
signed it best wishes to all
oh you struggled so hard to be king
working night and day
dreaming of only one thing, never a holiday
somewhere along the way
you forgot that i needed a man
when they found him they took him back where he belonged
and his family and friends saw him annually
and they say it’s a shame what’s become of the king
