Tuning:
This song was originally by Jimmy Cliff, and then covered by dozens of others.
For some reason it's 2009 and nobody's even posted the lyrics for this song, so here goes.
Lion sDays "I am Aking, and I Dreign"
Lion saDys "I am king in this rAeign"
No more kiDngs must be in this backyaGrd
Lion sDays, "I am kAing and I reDign."
Elephant says "I am king 'cause I'm strong"
Giraffe says "I am king 'cause my neck is long"
There's no doubt that they are all wrong
Still lion says "I am king 'cause I'm double-strong."
(BRIDGE)
I'm king of kAings, and lord of lords, in this lDand
No more back tAalk, any of you, 'cause I'm kDing
From the be-ginn-ing, I was made kGing.
Lion sDays, "I am kAing, and I reDign."

(The site wants proof that Jimmy Cliff is actually a recognised musician, so here's a
to one of his albums: http://www.amazon.com/Best-Jimmy-Cliff/dp/B00000E5N2. Seriously
even Bob Marley covered this, so I think it's worth posting.)
