Merle Haggard - A King Without a Queen lyrics

Riches do not come in silver and in gold It comes in the happiness you find I place my gold and silver before my precious queen But now there's only mem'ries left behind If you've ever lost a loved one Then you'll know just what I mean For what good are treasures and the kingdom If you're a king without a queen Now that she has gone and found another love My castle is empty and so cold For her leaving brought me heartaches that I have never known And there's sadness in the treasures I now hold If you've ever lost a loved one Then you'll know just what I mean For what good are treasures and the kingdom If you're a king without a queen If you're a king without a queen
