verse #1
Hello one and all
Was it you I used to know
Can't you hear me call
On this old ham radio
All I got to say
I'm a live and feeling fine
If you come my way
You can share my poison wine
chorus
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
verse #2
I don't want your bread
I don't need your helping hand
I can't be no savage
I can't be no highwayman
Show me where you are
You and I will spend this day
Driving in my car
Through the ruins of Santa Fe
chorus
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

bridge
I'm reading last year's papers
Although I don't know why
Assassins cons and rapers
Might as well die
verse #3
If you come a round
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 in side
I might live til Saturday
chorus
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
king of the world
As far as I know
