Video clip

Well, i left my home and my one true love
East of the ohio river
My father said we'd never wed
For i had me no gold nor silver

But my darling dear, please shed no tears
But i think that it's fair to warn you
That i return to claim your hand
As the king of california

Over deserts hot and mountains cold
I traveled the indian country
Whispering your name under lonesome skies
Remembering my only company

But my darling dear, please have no fear
For i think that it's fair to warn you
That i return to claim your hand
As the king of california

I went up from sacramento town
To the sierra gold fields
And i worked my stake on a riverbank?
Dreaming just how a rich man feels

Now my darling dear, listen here
For i think that it's fair to warn you
That i return to claim your hand
As the king of california

Now the dead man's lying at my feet
Who tried to steal my earnings
Yet i still recall your tender kiss
Though this bullet in my chest is burning

But my darling dear, please have no fear
For i think that it's fair to warn you
That i return to claim your hand
As the king of california

That i return to claim your hand
As the king of california
