Riding With The King Lyrics
[Intro]
I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid
I blew it all at the penny arcade
A hundred dollars on a Kewpie doll
I guess no pretty chick is going to make me crawl
Get on a TWA to the promised land
Every woman, child and man
Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring
Don't you know you're riding with the king?
[Hook]
He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier
He's going to check us all on out of here
Up to that mansion on a hill
Where you can get your prescription filled
[Hook]
Get on a TWA to the promised land
Everybody, everybody clap your hands
Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring
Don't you know you're riding with the king?
Riding with the king
Don't you know you're riding with the king?
[Bridge]
A tuxedo and a shiny 335

You can see it in his face, the blues never lie
Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings
And don't you know we're riding with the king?
I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old
With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold
I had a guitar hanging just about waist high
And I'm going to play this thing until the day I die
[Outro]
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Riding, you're riding with the king
You're riding, you're riding with the king
