If I Were A King Lyrics by Joe Bataan

Saint Latin’s Day Massacre

1972

If I were a king (if I were a king)
I'd share my throne
And if I were a millionaire, oh baby baby)
You'd have all that I own
Just say to me, that you care
And you're going where I want to
If you say you love me (if you say love me)
I'll give you diamonds and pearls
Just whisper that you want me
And you'll be me girl
And, you can have pearls in your hand
Just as long as I'm your man
Darling, theres gonna be no road in the whole wide world
That's gonna stop this guy from walking against you
There's gonna be no river deep enough baby
That I can't swim, to be beside you
(If I werе a king) (If I I were a king)
And if that's all to?, I write a song to you
I'll climb thе highest mountain top
And shout out that I love you, (you)
If I were a beggar (if i were a beggar)
Id beg for your hand
And if I were a poor boy, I'd offer you a toy
But, nothing's gonna stop me, yeah
From trying to get next to you
Just as long as I can, I'm your man
That's right darling
There"s gonna be no road long enough
In the whole wide world
That's gonna stop this guy from getting to you
Believe if you find one day
That all the riches and all the treasures in the whole wide world
Aren't enough to satisfy you, darling
Then you can have my heart
And believe me, yes you better believe
With my heart you can go a long, long way
I'm telling you
All it's gonna take, all it's gonna take
Is for you to be my queen
Let this daddy here be your king
