The crack of dawn finds me all alone,
still awake and flying high.
And when there´s no one else around
I know it all belongs to me.

All of the colors change before my eyes,
black turns to gold and then to blue.
And all the suits and all the coffee cups
are still an hour away.

This is my life,
and nothing gonna bring me down.
I´m the King of Riverside Park.

And if you see me sleeping on the grass,
as you make your way to work,
you may bow, you may pay your respects,
you´re welcome in my home.

I´m the King of Riverside Park.
And all the suits and all the coffee cups
are still an hour away.

This is my life,
and nothing gonna bring me down.
I´m the King of Riverside Park.
