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
