Like a leaf

caught in the wind he drifted a while

With no purpose

direction too his life

He tried to get himself

and togother 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

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

Street is just an ordinary man

I've thought the whole thing over

and I think I understand

That the king of

Street is just an ordinary man
