King of the World

High on a hill

The valley below me

The blue sky above me

My dream was so real

I could not hear

The hum of the highway

Or the drums of the foundry

Pounding out steel

I didn't need no money

I didn't need no time

I didn't need nothing

But my own piece of mind

And you know that

A voice like a whisper is bound to be heard

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

So I close my eyes

I let the power defeat me

Because the real world can't free me

From this dirty old town

With the four winds blow

I sent my troubles rollin'

And since the world just kept turnin'

I let it go round

I didn't need no money

I didn't need no time

I didn't need nothing

But my own piece of mind

And you know that

A voice like a whisper is bound to be heard

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

Where the four winds blow

I sent my troubles rollin'

Since the world just kept turnin'

I let it go round

I didn't need no money

I didn't need no time

I didn't need nothing

But my own piece of mind

And you know that

A voice like a whisper is bound to be heard

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

For just one moment, I'm the king of the world

I'm the king of the world
