Lyrics
I can feel the sunlight on my shoulders
On a rainy afternoon
I can feel a pocketful of diamonds
When I got holes in both my shoes
I can stop a freight train in its tracks
And not get black and blue
When I'm standin' next to you...
When I'm standin' next to you...
I can run fifty miles an hour
Even though I'm standin' still
I can wear a swimsuit in the winter
And never even feel a chill
They could take out all my wisdom teeth
And I wouldn't need a pain pill
When I'm standin' next to you...
When I'm standin' next to you...
I will be the King of my own country
And the envy of them all
I will be as wealthy as a millionaire
Winter summer spring and fall
I will be the greatest man alive
And soon it will be true
When I'm standin' next to you
When I'm standin' next to you
