Intro Verse Cane poles hanging out of a four door window Bucket full of minnows in the front floorboard Box full of greasy cold fried chicken livers A day on the river's what I live for Chorus Got the radio playing and my boat while I float Take a toke and listen to Merle Hot sun, cold one, I'll be a son of a gun I'm king of the world Instrumental Verse They grow big gators in south Louisiana My neighbors in the swamp take an evening nap Shoo fly, shoo fly, Polk salad Annie Listen to the bull frogs hip hop rap Chorus I got a pretty thing waiting downtown I'm in love with a green eyed girl I'm gonna catch me a fish, go home, get a kiss, play Yes, I'm king of the world Instrumental Verse Got a stringer full of bass and a hookie in my finger Sun burnt face and a Tylenol buzz Take the good with the bad and the bad with the better The weather isn't bad so better not cuss Chorus I got a roof over me and enough to eat And a Labrador I call Earl He lays by my feet, looks up at me Like I'm the King of the World Instrumental Verse Cane poles hanging out of a four door window Bucket full of minnows in the front floorboard Box full of greasy cold fried chicken livers A day on the river's what I live for Chorus Got the radio playing and my boat while I float Take a toke and listen to Merle Hot sun, cold one, I'll be a son of a gun I'm king of the world Ending King of the world, king of the world
