The Ballad Of Jimmy King Songtext
von Mainfelt

So he wakes up under this lonely bridge his home
An old scruffy jacket and a hut is all that he owns
He dreams to sleep in a house
Where his wife covers him with love
His children are playing hide-and-seek in the backyard

He goes to the restaurant his empty stomach leads him there
But the owner screams to call the police - get out of here
He dreams to sit at a rich table where the waitress brings him some wine
He lights up a cigar and covers his eyes from the sunshine


Jimmy in your world you are the king
Jimmy in your world you don′t have to care about a thing
And you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown
Everybody seems to know you in the whole town

So he goes to the place where all the artists meet
The musicians are singing and dancing in the street
He dreams to stand in the spotlight
And everybody loves him
He sings songs of an old poor ma having a dream

Jimmy in your world you are the king
Jimmy in your world you don't have to care about a thing
And you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown
Everybody seems to know you in the whole town


Jimmy in your world you are the king
Jimmy in your world you don′t have to care about a thing
And you wear gentle clothes and a bright shining crown
Everybody seems to know you in the whole town
