Lyrics King Of the Hill - Johnny Cash
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
Get
put
on
at
the
Harlan
mine
Be
the
last
one
out
at
quittin'
time
You
already
workin'
when
the
whistle
blew
Never
complain
about
a
job
to
do
When
they
say
who
can,
you
say
I
will
If
you
ever
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
You
need
a
good
woman
to
share
your
bed
To
keep
you
loved
and
to
keep
you
fed
To
help
you
to
face
another
day
To
get
you
up
and
on
your
way
Where
the
golden
rule
don't
rule
out
true
You
do
to
them
before
they
do
to
you
Watch
out
for
yourself
or
nobody
will
If
you
ever
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
Saturday
night
you
go
to
Harlan
town
You
shoot
some
pool
and
you
fool
around
You
watch
the
girls
and
you
drink
bootleg
Get
starved
to
death
before
you
beg
You
trust
in
luck
till
your
luck
is
gone
Then
jump
right
in
and
you
hang
right
on
There
may
be
times
you
would
have
to
kill
If
you
ever
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
When
the
last
of
the
coals
out
of
every
vein
Had
long
been
gone
on
the
northbound
train
Walk
up
to
the
top
and
if
you're
standing
still
You
can
call
yourself
king
of
the
hill
But
if
you
fall
like
a
lot
have
done
By
accident
or
knife
or
gun
When
they
lay
you
high
on
the
mountain
still
You
can
call
yourself
king
of
the
hill
If
you
gonna
be
king
of
the
hill
You
can't
make
it
at
the
cotton
mill
