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
