Born in 1942 in the East End of London
Was someone I'll never forget
His name was Michael Shimmen, but everyone called him Mick
And wherever he laid his hat down, to hearts he would stick
Have you ever met someone whose smile lights up a room?
A laugh so infectious that the whole world laughs with you?
Well you would if you'd met him, cause if you'd met him
I know for a fact you couldn't forget him

So here's to the King of London, standing taller than the rest
With a heart of gold and a good old soul
I promised him I'd do my best
Keep my head held high, wipe the tears from my eyes
And carry on in this world
Here's to the King of London, love always, your blue-eyed girl

Sport and music were his passions
And running track lines
A proper old-school Eastender always dressed up to the nines
He left behind his legacy in kids, grandkids, and wife
But one thing can be said for Mick, he lived one hell of a life

So here's to the King of London, standing taller than the rest
With a heart of gold and a good old soul
I promised him I'd do my best
Keep my head held high, wipe the tears from my eyes
And carry on in this world
Here's to the King of London, love always, your blue-eyed girl

And I know this song might mean nothing to you
But it sure does mean everything to me
When that sun shines down on me it's oh so bittersweet
Cause I know it's him and he's happy
Cause his soul's been set free

So here's to the King of London, standing taller than the rest
With a heart of gold and a good old soul
I promised him I'd do my best
Keep my head held high, wipe the tears from my eyes
And carry on in this world
Here's to the King of London, love always

So here's to the King of London, standing taller than the rest
With a heart of gold and a good old soul
I promised him I'd do my best
Keep my head held high, wipe the tears from my eyes
And carry on in this world
Here's to the King of London, love always, your blue-eyed girl
