[Verse 1] When you’re broke and barely breathing Every month it's soul you're heaving But the moment pay Drops into your hand Off to town and dressin’ dandy Buyin’ rounds, the pints come handy Swore you'd never touch that goddamn Cheap old whiskey brand But the crew’s all here, grabbin’ the beer We’ll drink our way through every tier [Chorus] No one can touch me this evenin’ I’m the king, king, king while I’m dreamin’ It’s the truth, no matter what they say When the 25th comes my way No one can stop me from reelin’ I’m the king, king, king with a feelin’ It’s worth the pain of the weeks gone gray To be the king one drinkin’ day [Verse 2] Come the Monday, sore and shaken Heart and head both clearly breakin’ Not a single cent To your sorry name Bills you swore you'd pay are stackin’ Landlord knocks, and now he’s packin’ So you pawn your tunes and speakers Just to dodge the shame But your mind's already back in the crack Of the bar where you led the attack [Chorus] No one can touch me this evenin’ I’m the king, king, king while I’m dreamin’ It’s the truth, no matter what they say When the 25th comes my way No one can stop me from reelin’ I’m the king, king, king with a feelin’ It’s worth the pain of the weeks gone gray To be the king one drinkin’ day [Bridge] Line up ten of your best shots Guinness, crisps and salted pots Serve it quick and don’t be slow If you want a heavy flow [Chorus – Final] No one can touch me this evenin’ I’m the king, king, king while I’m dreamin’ It’s the truth, no matter what they say When the 25th comes my way No one can stop me from reelin’ I’m the king, king, king with a feelin’ It’s worth the pain of the weeks gone gray To be the king one drinkin’ day
