The king is in his castle, his dog is at his feet.
|
His queen is there beside him 'neath the clean cotton sheets.
|
Six-six Chevy Nova gleamin' in the pale moonlight,
|
And somewhere
|
In a double-wide
|
In Waxahachie, Texas...
|
The king is in his castle tonight.
|
|
He ain't got diamonds, she ain't got pearls.
|
God's in his Heaven, all's right with their world,
|
And he says a little prayer as he turns out the light,
|
And somewhere
|
In a double-wide
|
In Ardmore, Oklahoma...
|
The king is in his castle tonight.
|
If there's ever been anything better,
|
He ain't found it yet.
|
For a good ol' boy from Birmingham, this is good as it can get.
|
So he keeps holdin' on, and he's holdin' on tight,
|
And somewhere
|
In a double-wide
|
In Gulf Shores, Alabama...
|
The king is in his castle tonight.
|
|
He ain't got diamonds, she ain't got pearls.
|
God's in his Heaven, all's right with their world,
|
And he says a little prayer as he turns out the light,
|
And somewhere
|
In a double-wide
|
In Gulf Shores, Alabama...
|
The king is in his castle tonight.
