Paragraph Lyric
Hello one and all
Was it you I used to know
Can't you hear me call
On this old ham radio

All I've got to say
I'm alive and feeling fine
Should you come my way
We can share my poison wine

No marigolds in the promised land
There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow
Any man left on the Rio Grande
Is the king of the world
As far as I know

I won't take your bread
I don't need no helping hand
I can't be no savage
I can't be no highway man

Show me where you are
You and I can spend this day
Driving in my car
Through the ruins of Santa Fe

No marigolds in the promised land
There's a hole in the ground where they used to grow
Any man left on the Rio Grande
Is the king of the world
As far as I know


If you come around
No more pain and no regrets
Watch the sun go brown
Smoking cobalt cigarettes

There's no need to hide
Taking things the easy way
If I stay inside
I might live till Saturday

No marigolds in the promised land
there's a hole in the ground where they used to grow
Any man left on the Rio Grande
Is the king of the world
The king of the world
As far as I know
