Riley B. King

Lyrics

He's a king without a castle or crown
 And every night he lays his body down
 In a different town but one thing stays the same
 Everybody knows his name
 People may laugh or cry as his stories are told
 To tell the truth like this a man must be bold
 And the people are glad, for the things he shares
 Everybody knows he cares
 By the light of the moon comes a flood of emotion
 Riley B. King, be the king of the ocean
 He's royal blue like the deep blue sea
 Riley B. King
 Out of the darkness and into the light
 To fight the peaceful warrior's fight
 Such a beautiful sight and the way you feel
 Watchin' him with Lucille
 The heart of the man is open wide
 And he closes his eyes and looks inside
 To a love of the world through the song he sings
 Giving it everything
 By the light of the moon comes a flood of emotion
 Riley B. King, be the king of the ocean
 He's royal blue like the deep blue sea
 Riley B. King
 By the light of the moon comes a flood of emotion
 Riley B. King, be the king of the ocean
 He's royal blue like the deep blue sea
 Riley B. King
 By the light of the moon comes a flood of emotion
 Riley B. King, be the king of the ocean
 He's royal blue like the deep blue sea
 Riley B. King
