The King Underground Lyrics

How many nights have I been on the road

How many days passed back home

Is my baby waiting for me

Is she cold and blind as me

In a lonely desert town I found the king of underground

And I asked him lord tell me where I'm bound

And he said

Way down oh down

Bless my sunken crown

I ain't seen the light in so long

Oh boy you're hell bound

But for a dead man you've got a beating heart so loud

I see an angel on the road

Is it in my mind I don't know

Cause when I'm blind you're all I see

Angel keep me company

In a lonely desert town I found the king of underground

And I asked him lord tell me where I'm bound

And he said

Way down oh down

Bless my sunken crown

I ain't seen the light in so long

Oh boy you're hell bound

But for a dead man you've got a beating heart so loud

The town fades away and all the colors turn to gray

There ain't no angel on the road

It's just me and my damned soul

In a made up desert town I play the king of underground

And I ask my myself where do I go now

Way down oh down

Damn this cursèd crown

I ain't seen the light in so long

And oh boy I'm hell bound

But for a dead man I've sure got a beating heart so loud

Oh lord what a lonely sound

King of the underground
