The world had turned me down
Then you picked me up and you kissed me sweet
You changed a beggar into a king.
Yes, you took the rags from off of my back
And you gave me your love to keep me warm
Yes, you picked me up and you kissed me sweet
And changed a beggar into a king.
--- Instrumental ---
I had walked the streets with my head bowed low
The sun for me would never shine
Then you came along into my life
And changed a beggar into a king.
Yes, you took the rags from off of my back
And you placed a crown on my head
Yes, you picked me up and kissed me sweet
You changed a beggar into a king.
You changed a beggar into a king...
I had sunk as low as a man could go The world had turned me down Then you picked me up and you kissed me sweet You changed a beggar into a king. Yes, you took the rags from off of my back And you gave me your love to keep me warm Yes, you picked me up and you kissed me sweet And changed a beggar into a king. --- Instrumental --- I had walked the streets with my head bowed low The sun for me would never shine Then you came along into my life And changed a beggar into a king. Yes, you took the rags from off of my back And you placed a crown on my head Yes, you picked me up and kissed me sweet You changed a beggar into a king. You changed a beggar into a king...
