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 sCays "FI am king, aCnd I reign"
Lion saCys "I am king in tFhis reign"
No more kiCngs must be in this backyaFrd
Lion sCays, "IF am king andC I reign."
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 kFings, and lord of lords, in this lCand
No more back tFalk, any of you, 'cause I'm kCing
From the be-ginn-ing, I was made kFing.
Lion sCays, "IF am king, andC I reign."

(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.)
