Lyrics:

                                                  
THE  KING  AND  I
 
He looks like Elvis standing by the Christmas trees
I pull my car closer can’t believe what I see 
He has long sideburns and a rhinestone belt on his hips
He walks over and says "Please give to the kids"
 
CHORUS I:
ONCE I COULD''A   FED 
MANY A HUNGRY CHILD
BUT I LOST ALL MY POSSESSIONS
IN A BLINK OF AN EYE
IF YOU CAN SPARE ONE DOLLAR 
ONE MORE TEAR WILL DRY
ONE MORE CHILD WILL  HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS 
FROM THE KING AND I
 
I reach in my pocket 
Hand him a twenty dollar bill 
He says “Thank you very much, ( sung like Elvis) 
The kids need a hot meal”
They''re back in Memphis,Houston and New York
And this Christmas they need their faith restored”
 
He says:
CHORUS II
ONCE I COULD’ VE  FED 
MANY A HUNGRY CHILD
BUT I LOST ALL MY POSSESSIONS
IN A BLINK OF AN EYE
I’M GRATEFUL FOR YOUR DOLLARS
NOW ONE MORE TEAR WILL DRY
ONE MORE CHILD WILL  HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS
FROM THE KING AND I
 
BRIDGE -- new bridge words
He smiles at me and disappears
My alarm clock rings  
I''m awake but I  know why he was here 
 
CHORUS III:
HE HAD MONEY TO FEED
MANY A HUNGRY CHILD
BUT HE LOST ALL HIS POSSESSIONS 
IN A BLINK OF AN EYE
Now I’LL GLADY GIVE TO OTHERS 
HOPING ONE MORE TEAR WILL DRY
ONE MORE CHILD WILL  HAVE A MERRY CHRISTMAS 
FROM THE KING AND I
 
MERRY CHRISTMAS everyone 
FROM THE KING AND I
