I had sunk as low as a man could go   The world had turned me down   Then you picked me up    And you kissed me sweet   You changed a beggar into a king.      Yes, you took the rags from off of my back   And you gave me your love to keep me warm   Yes, you picked me up and you kissed me sweet   And changed a beggar into a king.      --- Instrumental ---      I had walked the streets    With my head bowed low   The sun for me would never shine   Then you came along into my life   And changed a beggar into a king.   Yes, you took the rags from off of my back   And you placed the crown on my head   Yes, you picked me up and kissed me sweet   You changed a beggar into a king.      You changed a beggar into a king...
