I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid.
I blew it all at the pennyarcade.
A hundred dollars on a kewpie doll.
No pretty chick is gonna makeme crawl.


Get on a TWA to the promised land.
Every woman, childand man
Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring.
Don't you knowyou're riding with the king?

He's on a mission of mercy to the newfrontier,
He's gonna check us all on out of here.
Up to that mansion on ahill
Where you can get your prescription filled.

Get on a TWA tothe promised land.
Everybody clap your hands.
And don't you just love theway that he sings?
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Riding withthe king.
Don't you know we're riding with the king?

A tuxedo andshiny 335.
You can see it in his face, the blue never lie.
Tonighteverybody's getting their angel wings.
And don't you know we're riding withthe king?

I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten yearsold
With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold.
I had aguitar hanging just about waist high
And I'm gonna play this thing until theday I die.

Don't you know we're riding with the king?
Don't youknow we're riding with the king?
Riding, you're riding with theking.
You're riding, you're riding with the king.
