Every Man A King- Goodbye Huey Long by Louisiana Ramblers Lyrics
Why weep or slumber America
Land of brave and true
With castles and clothing and food for all
All belongs to you
Ev'ry man a king, ev'ry man a king
For you can be a millionaire
But there's something belonging to others
There's enough for all people to share
When it's sunny June and December too
Or in the winter time or spring
There'll be peace without end
Ev'ry neighbor a friend
With ev'ry man a king
[Music slows, sad tune begins]
And a million sad hearts
In the nation today
There's a billion bowed heads hangin' low
For the bravest of all had to answer the call
And our own Huey Long had to go
And with deepest regret we will never forget
With his smile he would would fight every wrong
Let us all say a prayer
He's in heaven somewhere
With a smile we say goodbye Huey Long
Land of brave and true
With castles and clothing and food for all
All belongs to you
Ev'ry man a king, ev'ry man a king
For you can be a millionaire
But there's something belonging to others
There's enough for all people to share
When it's sunny June and December too
Or in the winter time or spring
There'll be peace without end
Ev'ry neighbor a friend
With ev'ry man a king
[Music slows, sad tune begins]
And a million sad hearts
In the nation today
There's a billion bowed heads hangin' low
For the bravest of all had to answer the call
And our own Huey Long had to go
And with deepest regret we will never forget
With his smile he would would fight every wrong
Let us all say a prayer
He's in heaven somewhere
With a smile we say goodbye Huey Long
