King in chains
As a king in chains
You'll ask me why
I have to stay
Until I die
But you don't know
Of my sins
Or why I can't
Lift my chin
If you ask
My subjects and queen
I think you'll find
That they all agree
That I'm worthy
Of the throne
So for what I've done
I will not atone
So tighten my chains
And lock my cell
For this once great king
Finally fell
I bet you're wondering
What I did
Well, I think now
I'll provide the gist
I treated my people
Just and fair
I made sure
Everyone got their share
My sin isn't greed
I'm fine with what I've got
My only sin
Is that I got caught
For I ruled my kingdom
As a king should
But I'm no king
I am Robin Hood
