《African Roots》歌词

[00:00:02] I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid

[00:00:14] I blew it all at the penny arcade

[00:00:18] A hundred dollars on a cupid doll

[00:00:27] No pretty chick is gonna make me crawl

[00:00:38] And I teetered the way to the promised land

[00:00:45] Every woman child and man

[00:01:08] Get your caddilac and a great big diamond ring

[00:01:12] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:01:17] He's on a mission of mercy to the new fronteir

[00:01:23] He's gonna take us all outta' here

[00:01:28] Up to that mansion on a hill

[00:01:32] Where you can get your prescription pill

[00:01:51] And I teetered the way to the promised land

[00:01:57] Everybody clap your hands

[00:01:59] And don't you dirts love the way that he sings

[00:02:03] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:02:10] You're riding with the king

[00:02:15] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:02:20] A tuxedo and a shining green burning five

[00:02:37] You can see it in his face the blues is alive

[00:02:43] Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings

[00:02:58] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:03:01] I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old

[00:03:06] With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold

[00:03:11] I had a guitar hanging just about waist high

[00:03:15] And I'm gonna play this thing until the day I die

[00:03:21] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:03:29] Don't you know you're riding with the king

[00:03:33] You're riding with me baby

[00:03:34] You got good hands

[00:03:36] Yes you're riding with the king

[00:03:38] I wanted to say B B King but you know who the king is
