And it came to pass
That in the year of rock and superstars
King Richard returned from exile to claim his throne
And from around the world, the cry was
The King! The King! King Richard is back!
Long live the king! Long live the king!
King Richard is back, the king! King Richard is back!
Long live the king! Long live the king!
Good golly Miss Molly, go and tell everybody
Every Johnny, Joe and Jack that the king is back
We gonna let it reety-deety [?], gonna let it all burn
Gonna have a celebration, for the king returns
I'm the king of rock and roll
I'm the king of rock and roll
Now I'm gonna sing and shout it
There ain't no doubt about it
I'm the king of rock and roll
