King for a Day

I went to work today. Same as yesterday. And the day before And I'll work every day till I've worked my life away. And I can't work anymore And it's hard to see what's gonna happen to me When my work is done But I can't worry now Nothing I can do anyhow But keep working on But I'm so glad you came out today I'm so glad you came to spend the day Away with me So, I was king for a day, at least it started out that way But it would not remain There was love for life and love for the one Oh but she went away And it occurs to me now at long last I see What I should have done You might be a good man it won't turn out like you plan Even angels fall But I'm so glad you came out today I'm so glad you came to spend the day I'm so glad you came to spend the day away with me So tonight I'll lay me down to sleep and pray the Lord my soul to keep And to see you again It's been so many days since I've felt this way I hope it never ends I'd like to see something good happen for me But I can't complain If you'll come to me I'll have the chance to be Oh king for a day But I'm so glad you came out today I'm so glad you came to spend the day Oh I'm so glad you came to spend the day Oh I'm so glad you came to spend the day away with me
