King of the Mountain

(Ah) [Clears Throat]
Now here's a story, it's sad but true.
Best listen up now.
Don't let this story happen to you.
He made his way through the back streets,
Played everybody's game.
He was just trying to make it,
'Cause money was his game.
Tried his luck at card games,
Always shootin' dice,
Win or lose you always knew,
He'd come back once or twice.
He was the king of the mountain.
My main man.
(King of the mountain)
But the man had to come down.
(King of the mountain)
Took a tumble for the worse.
(Whoa yeah, look out)
He was the king of the mountain.
Used to be my main man.
Took a tumble y'all.
(Uh) [Clears throat]
Do check out my little rhyme.
I ain't gonna say it but one more time.
Well, well.
He always had his women,
Lots of pretty things.
He was a central attraction,
We called him Mr Clean.
Well he drank the finest liquor,
He blew a lotta cash.
It wasn't long before we knew,
That Mr Clean would crash.
He was a king of the mountain yeah.
My main man.
(King of the mountain)
But he came way down.
(King of the mountain)
Took a tumble for the worse y'all.
He was the king yeah.
(He was the king of the mountain)
He used to be my main man.
(He was the king of the mountain)
Took a tumble.
Whoa yeah.
(King of the mountain)
Well if you want to see him yeah,
(King of the mountain)
You just might try the track.
(King of the mountain)
No he won't be in the winners' circle.
He'll be standing way back.
(Oh!)
Well the king of the mountain,
(He was the king of the mountain)
He used to be my main, my main man.
Took a tumble (Oh!)
Now he ain't the king of aught!
