I've got diamonds, pearls, I've got dancing girls,
It's all because I'm a king.
People bow before me and the world ignores me
But I don't have everything.
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
I sit here alone way up on my throne
With my crown held high.
But I need a girl who will share my world
And stay with me till I die.
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
I said a king is just a man if he is here all alone.
A man can be a king if he has love of his own.
Though I have everything a rich man will die
You are much happier than I
So don't envy me all these things you see
Just because I'm a king.
What I need so much is a lovin' touch,
It would mean everything.
I'm a king, a king without a queen.
