[Verse 1]
Down along these hillsides
Many miles ago
Lived a man of vision child
But little did I know (No)
He was always talking child
About the heart and soul
'Til one day some pharaoh came
And he offered up his dole
[Chorus]
In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings
The kings
[Verse 2]
'Cause he lives up in a tower now
Very high upon a hill
People come from miles around
Only hoping that he will—
Turn their dreams right into gold
Could he turn their worlds around, around, around?
And if he does he'll keep it all
Then he'll stash it underground
[Chorus]
In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings
The kings
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings
In the valley
In the valley of the kings
In the valley
The valley of the kings
The kings
