George Jones King of the Mountain lyrics

I gave her that diamond she dreamed of
And I bought her a home with a view
I took her to the ends of the rainbow
But all I left her was blue

Seems I never had time to love her
Now it seems time just stands still
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill

Now I'm here alone, after leavin' her lonely
Lord, I'm livin' with the memory I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain

But I was only a fool on the hill

Now I'm here alone, after leavin' her lonely
Lord, I'm livin' with the memory I know I can't kill
I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill

I thought I was king of the mountain
But I was only a fool on the hill
