Lyrics

i dreamed i did a good job and i got well paid, blew it all at the penny arcade, a hundred dollars on a kewpie doll, i guess no white chick is gonna make me crawl, on a twa, to the promised land, every woman, child and man, gets a cadillac and a diamond ring, dont you know we're riding with the king?, hes on a mission of mercy to the new frontier, hes gonna check us all on out of here, up to that mansion on a hill, where you can get your prescription filled, on a twa to the promised land, everybody come on and clap your hands, dont you just love the way he sings, dont you know we're riding with the king?, a red cape and shiny cold 45, i never saw his face but i saw the light, tonight everybody's getting their angel wings, dont you know we're riding with the king?, well i stepped out of a mirror at ten years old, with a suit cut sharp, as a razor and a heart of gold, i had a guitar hanging just about waist high, i'm gonna play that thing until the day i die
