THE KINGS HIGHWAY BLUES

Saw you dashing down the avenue
Walking in your Winklepicker shoes
And crushed velvet pants
You commissioned from your past
and a black satin hat
You found at the laundramat

It’s true these are the best of times
It’s true these are the best of times

You say you got the Kings Highway blues
The money that you saved after school
a dollar from the rich
You got some pick up stix
from the candy store
You know what you want and you want sone more

It’s true these are the best of times
It’s true these are the best of times

Saw you dashing down the avenue
Walking in your Winklepicker shoes
And crushed by the fads
and collisions with the past
and the world that leaves you mad
and you know what you want and you want to laugh

It’s true these are the best of times
It’s true these are the best of times
