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 gonna 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 gonna 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 clap your hands.
And don`t you just love the way that he sings?
Don`t you know we`re riding with the king
Riding with the king.
Don`t you know we`re riding with the king?
A tuxedo and shiny 335.
You can see it in his face, the blue 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 gonna 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
