Lyrics

Yo sé bien que estoy afuera
Pero el día en que yo me muera
Sé que tendrás que llorar.
Llorar y llorar.
Dirás que no me quisiste
Pero vas a estar muy triste
Y así te vas a quedar.
Con dinero y sin dinero hago siempre lo que quiero,
Y mi palabra es la ley, no tengo trono ni reina
Ni nadie quien me comprenda… Pero sigo siendo el rey.
Y yo sigo siendo el rey, el rey sigo siendo yo.
Una piedra en el camino
Me enseñó que mi destino
Era rodar y rodar
Rodar y rodar
Después me dijo un arriero
Que no hay que llegar primero
Sino hay que saber llegar.
Con dinero y sin dinero hago siempre lo que quiero,
Y mi palabra es la ley no tengo trono ni reina
Ni nadie quien me comprenda pero sigo siendo el rey.
Y yo sigo siendo el rey, el rey sigo siendo yo.

Lyrics translation

I know I'm out.
But the day I die
I know you're gonna have to cry.
Crying and crying.
You'll say you didn't love me.
But you're gonna be so sad.
And that's how you're gonna stay.
With money and without money I always do what I want,
And my word is the law, I have no throne or queen
And no one who understands me ... but I'm still the King.
And I'm still the King, The King is still me.
A stone on the road
He taught me that my destiny
It was rolling and rolling
Roll and roll
Then I was told by a chauffeur
That you don't have to get there first
Otherwise you have to know how to get there.
With money and without money I always do what I want,
And my word is the law I have no throne or queen
No one who understands me but I'm still the King.
And I'm still the King, The King is still me.
