Tis Good To Be King

Tis Good To Be King
Copyright 2010 by Rick Cheadle

Tis good to be king
The king of nothing
A smokey haze fills my home
This barstool is my throne

Tis good to be king
It’s what I’ve longed to be
Ever since I lost my queen
She left without saying a thing

Tis good to be king

I tried to keep it all together
But my castles made of sand
I’m pulled in all directions
Just like clay in her hands
I don’t wear the crown lightly
Just pour a drink and set me free
And you’ll see -

Tis good to be king
Tis good to be king
Tis good to be king
