The King Of Love
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.
Got a heart as big as all I know
Got a bag of candy for the girl next door
She's all grown up and I'm telling you, son
I'm gonna marry her the ditch times 21
I'm a winner
I'm a saint
A little crazy
A little wink
I got a date with destiny
The king of love, that's me
The king of love, that's me
Hey
Friends all say she's out of her mind
If she'd oughta stay close to her own kind
They all tell her to expect the worst
Probably just wishin' that they let me first
Cause I'm a winner
I'm a saint
A little crazy
A little wink
I got a date with destiny
The king of love, that's me
The king of love, that's me
Hey, hey
Someday some you're gonna see me smile
When I see the little girl walking down the aisle
I'll keep waiting cause someday soon
Be a preacher at a party in a honeymoon
Cause I'm a winner
I'm a saint
A little crazy
A little wink
I got a date with destiny
The king of love, that's me
The king of love, that's me
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
I'm the king of love
Yeah
Got a bag of candy for the girl next door
