The sheet music:


Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:


Lyrics

Why weep or slumber, America
Land of brave and true
With castles, clothing and food for all
All belongs to you

Chorus
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 wintertime or spring
There’ll be peace without end
Ev’ry neighbor a friend
With ev’ry man a king
