The King

The King written in 1999 for Keystone Garden

 

Born with a fire in your heart

And a talent burning in your soul

Such a love for music

Like none I’ve seen before

Playing chords comes like breathing to you

Knowing the notes like the back of your hand

 

Put down your beer and pick up your bass

Put out your cigarette and plug in your guitar

Its time to do what you do best

Its time to show who’s the king

 

Its time to stop fucking around

Its time to start living your life

Play what comes from your heart

And do what’s natural to you

Tell the world your feelings

Sing the world your songs

 

Put down your beer and pick up your bass

Put out your cigarette and plug in your guitar

Its time to do what you do best

Its time to show who’s the king

 

Stop selling yourself short

Stop and listen to your music

And hear what you have to say

Stop and listen to your friends

Listen to those around you

And hear what they have to say

 

If you ever feel the doubt

Just remember this

Bonn and Cliff are alive

And continue to play through you
