I dreamed I get a good job and I got well paid,
And I blew it all at the penny arcade on a…a hundred dollars on a kewpie doll,
I guess no Romeo is gonna make me crawl.
That's right.
Ride that peace train now to the promised land,
Every woman, child and man,
It's a free gift, there ain't no strings,
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier,
He's gonna take us all on out of here,
Up to the mansion on a hill where you can get your spirit filled.
Say you will.
Ride that peace train now to the promised land,
Everybody come on, clap your hands,
Make me want to holler...holler and sing,
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
We're riding with the king,
We're riding with the king, yeah.
A love letter and an eastern star by night,
When I saw his face I saw light,
Tonight everybody getting their angel wings,
Don't you know we're riding with the king?
We're riding with the king.
We're riding with the king.
Blessed are the meek, they will inherit the Earth,
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God,
Blessed are you when people revile and they persecute you,
Say all manner of wicked things about you all the time,
You just keep your head up, darling,
You just keep your head up, darling,
You just keep your head up now.
Hey, we're riding with the king,
Oh yes, oh yeah,
We're riding with the… riding with the…
We're riding with the king,
We're riding with the king,
We're riding with the king.
