If Perry Como Words by Robert Hargreaves and Stanley J. Damerell Music by Tochard Evans (peak Billboard position # 1 in 1951) If they made me a king I'd be but a slave to you If I had everything I'd still be a slave to you If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright Still I'd turn for light to you If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you If I ruled the earth what would life be worth If I hadn't the right to you If I ruled the night, stars and moon so bright Still I'd turn for light to you If the world to me bowed yet humbly I'd flee to you If my friends were a crowd I'd turn in my need to you If I ruled the earth what would life be worth If I hadn't the right to you Transcribed by Ronald E.
