Lyrics: King Without A Crown
Album: Absolutely Abc-best Of

Welcome to the great republic

Guess i should show you round

Where once i was a king

And now i am a clown

The love that we once shared

Made a king of me

But now you’re gone… but now you’re gone

All i face is poverty

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

Hell hath no fury

Like a woman scorned

But heaven don’t boast – no heaven don’t boast

The jewel – the pretty jewel i just pawned

Every cloud has a silver lining

Every dog has its day

Oh but i guess the sun stopped shining

On the day you went away

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Yes i’m a king – king! king without a crown

Bathed in former glory

Deposed from my throne

How do i get to tell my story?

When all get’s your answerphone…

But you ain’t home

With the love you gave

I felt like royalty

But now you’re face to face – face to face

With one ex-member of the aristocracy

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

…king without a heart

…king without a hope

…king without a woman baby

Oh i’m a king without a crown

There’s no need to feel down

Yeah just take a look around

You’ll see a man who’s just a man

Nothing more

A king without a crown
