Kenny Rogers - The King Of Oak Street

Kenny Rogers

The King Of Oak Street

Like a leaf caught in the wind he drifted a while
With no purpose or direction too his life
He tried to get himself together and pacify his mind
And forget about the things he left behind.

The cryin' woman standing helpless in his door
With a two month old baby in her arms
His little black book laying torn up on the floor
And God only knows he never meant to do her wrong.

A careless weekend on the other side of town
Has torn the king of Oak Street's Castle down
And all week long he's tried to call her but she won't let him explain
Now Sunday morning finds him walking in the rain.

He sits down in a phone booth and he prays
That she'll forgive him and she'll believe he's changed his ways
With shaking hand he deposits his last dime
And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time.

Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says hello
Breakfast's almost ready baby, come on home
I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand
That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man.

I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand
That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man...

Mirror lyrics:

That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man...
I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand

That the king of Oak Street is just an ordinary man.
I've thought the whole thing over and I think I understand
Breakfast's almost ready baby, come on home
Then the sweetest voice he's ever heard says hello

And he's still praying that she won't hang up this time.
With shaking hand he deposits his last dime
That she'll forgive him and she'll believe he's changed his ways
He sits down in a phone booth and he prays

Now Sunday morning finds him walking in the rain.
And all week long he's tried to call her but she won't let him explain
Has torn the king of Oak Street's Castle down
A careless weekend on the other side of town

And God only knows he never meant to do her wrong.
His little black book laying torn up on the floor
With a two month old baby in her arms
The cryin' woman standing helpless in his door

And forget about the things he left behind.
He tried to get himself together and pacify his mind
With no purpose or direction too his life
Like a leaf caught in the wind he drifted a while
