Riding with the King

[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

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?

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

Get on a TWA to the promised land

Everybody, everybody clap your hands

And don't you doubt, love, the way that he sings

Don't you know you're riding with the king?

Riding with the king

Don't you know you're riding with the king?

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

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
