kelly collins - midas touch lyrics
[verse 1]
i met an old man the other day
he said, “son, i’ve learned many lessons in life the easy way”
he shook his head and he started to smile and lit up a smoke
and said, “boy, just sit in the sun for a while”
and then he spoke this story to me
and in those old grainy eyes it was clear the story was meant for me
[chorus 1]
look at my lifetime, they say i should not complain
i had more material wishes, too many luxuries to name
my friends, they used to tell me, i was born with the midas touch
and being king of the hill back then, it meant so much
[verse 2]
yes, they p-ssed me quickly, and business, it did well
if my life was lacking, surely no one could tell
but the day seemed a little colder, and the night seemed a little long
i knew a piece was missing, but i knew not where it belonged
[chorus 1]
look at my lifetime, they say i should not complain
i had more material wishes, too many luxuries to name
my friends, they used to tell me, i was born with the midas touch
and being king of the hill back then, it meant so much
[verse 3]
and then he mumbled something, i did not understand
but he reached in his pocket and he held out in his hand
a watch [?] in gold with an inscription near the seal
his greatest appreciation to the all-time king of the hill
[chorus 2]
this is really all i have in this life i have lived
all things that i learned, i’d never learned to give
my friends, they used to tell me, i was born with the midas touch
and being king of the hill back then, it meant so much
[outro]
being king of the hill don’t really mean that much
