BB King - feat Eric Clapton-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

I guess 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?

[Hook]

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

[Hook]

Get on a TWA to the promised land

Everybody, everybody clap your hands

Gets a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring

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

Riding with the king

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

[Bridge]

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

[Outro]

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
