Listen people can't you hear
the voices that are crying out.
There's a hunger burning
in the heart of their souls.
Maybe now that I got you
let me tell you what I'm talking 'bout
Stand up and shout
tonight we'll lose control 

I been down and mistreated
Now we're standing undefeated. 

I'm the King of the Mountain
I'm the King of the Hill
I'm the King of the Mountain 
I'm the King of the Hill 

You spend your life working 9 to 5
it's like doing time
Boss man says "Hey boy,
you'll never be no good"
With the night there's a magic in the air
that makes us come alive
Tonight's the night they can't put you down
no one could. 

I been down and mistreated
Now we're standing undefeated 

I'm the King of the Mountain
I'm the King of the Hill
I'm the King of the Mountain 
I'm the King of the Hill 

Listen people can't you hear
the voices that are crying out.
There's a hunger burning
in the heart of their souls.
Maybe now that I got you
let me tell you what I'm talking 'bout
Stand up and shout
tonight we'll lose control 

I been down and mistreated
We won't be cheated
Now we're standing undefeated... 

I'm the King of the Mountain
I'm the King of the Hill
I'm the King of the Mountain 
I'm the King of the Hill
