Baby King
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Baby king,baby king
You got to get ready for a baby king
You might dance daddy
You might sing
But you never seen nothin' like a baby king
It was a bright and sunny summer morn and she said (get ready for a baby king)
It wasn't too long 'fore he was born (get ready for a baby king)
You could hardly tell by the look on his face (get ready for a baby king)
That pretty soon he was gonna run the place (get ready for a baby king)
Now he is strong and he is wise (get ready for a baby king)
He sees right through your old disguise (get ready for a baby king)
Now you might think that you got it down (get ready for a baby king)
Wait till baby king comes to town (get ready for a baby king)
Baby king,baby king
You got to get ready for a baby king
You might dance daddy
You might sing
But you never seen nothin' like a baby king
No virgin mary brought him here (get ready for a baby king)
But the angels whispered in his tiny little ear(get ready for a baby king)
Then they sent him down from up above(get ready for a baby king)
Just to show you how to really love (get ready for a baby king)
Baby king,baby king
You got to get ready for a baby king
You might dance daddy
You might sing
But you never seen nothin' like a baby king
