Listen people can't you hear the voices
that are crying out
there's a hunger burning in the
heart of their souls
maybe now that i got you
let me tell you what i'm talking 'bout
stand up and shout
tonight we'll lose control
i been down and mistreated
now we're standing undefeated
chorus: i'm the king of the mountain
i'm the king of the hill
i'm the king of the mountain
i'm the king of the hill
you spend your life working 9 to 5
it's like doing time
boss man says "hey boy you'll never be no good"
with the night there's a magic in the air that makes us come alive
tonight's the night they can't
put you down
no one could
i've been down and mistreated
now we're standing undefeated
chorus: i'm king of the mountain
i'm king of the hill
i'm king of the mountain
i'm king of the hill
solo
verse one (repeat)
i been down and mistreated
now we won't be cheated
now we're standing undefeated
king of the mountain
