[Verse] Well John was the best, with a cue in his hand, He'd make every shot, with every leave planned, But it wasn't just pool, that made him so grand, Cause life was the ta-ble, for him to command. [Verse 2] His buddies would laugh when he'd make them confess, "They're a pretty pretty princess, upon his request," Though it seemed odd, it was all in good jest, John's heart was of gold, and we're all truly blessed. [Chorus] King of the table, a man we admire, A husband and father, with a faith that inspire, And John's still here, through thick and through fire, Cause his love and his laugh, no they'll never retire! [Verse 3] As a dad he was patient, gentle, and wise, Taught his kids about Jesus, and gave good advice, Every bedtime story, had no disguise, For in every tale, the truth would arise. [Chorus] King of the table, a man we admire, A husband and father, with a faith that inspire, And John's still here, through thick and through fire, Cause his love and his laugh, no they'll never retire! [Bridge] Though pool halls may still, echo his name, It was kindness and love, that brought him his fame, A kind loving husband, he played life's game, With a sweet gentle heart, that knew no shame! [Chorus] King of the table, a man we admire, A husband and father, with a faith that inspire, But John's still here, through thick and through fire, Cause his love and his laugh, no they'll never retire! [End]
