Van Morrison - King For A Day Blues Lyrics

Van Morrison Lyrics

"King For A Day Blues"

I'm king for a day, baby
I'm crowning you to be my queen
I'm king for a day, baby
I'm crowning you for to be my queen
For you're my only baby
There ain't no in-between

I want rubies on your fingers
And diamonds on your toes
I want rubies on your fingers
And diamonds on your toes
Milk and honey, baby
And silk and satin for your clothes

I'll buy you golden slippers
With rhinestones at your feet
I'll buy you golden slippers
With rhinestones at your feet
I'll feed you milk and honey
And a dish of fruit to eat

I'll take you in my arms, baby
Love you in a pleasing way
I'll take you in my arms, baby
Love you in a pleasing way
We'll go to my castle
And I'll be king for a day

I'm gon' take you to my castle, baby
I'll be king for a day
I'm gon' take you to my castle, baby
I'll be king for a day
Want you to be my queen
And I'll love you in a pleasing way

I'm king for a day
And I'm crowning you to be my queen
I'm king for a day
And I'm crowning you to be my lovely queen
For you're the only one for me, baby
There ain't no in-between
One more time
