Poor man wants the oyster
Rich man wants the pearl
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Come on and sing, sing brother sing, ah-huh
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Rich man wants the princess
Poor man just wants a girl
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Come on and sing, sing brother sing, ah-huh
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Poor man wants to be a rich man
Rich man wants to be a king
But the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Come on and sing, sing brother sing, ah-huh
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Come on and sing, sing brother sing, ah-huh
'Cos the man who can sing when he hasn't got a thing
He's a king of the whole wide world
Of the whole wide world
Of the whole wide world
