Story Behind The Song
Wrote about a man and his girl...getting away from it all with a care-free drive down the highway with the top down and no worries...taking life by the reins!!!
Song Description
This is a sprightly, fresh faced track of exuberance, and witty hints at remnants of Bon Jovi/Eagles with a little tragedy brewing just beneath its jaunty surface? It's largely well produced, unforgettable and downright enjoyable singalong guitar rock. This has a strong bassline, memorable hook and smashing drums that give it a certain edge. But, the best thing on offer is a the lyrics and vocals of a rasping, writhing snake of a voice. I'm singing along already....
lets gooooooo and take a ride today......

Lyrics
King's Highway-Troy Parker
It's summertime and the feelin's right
Gonna make my way to a better Life
Feeling good well it ain't no crime
Come along with me if you've got the time
(Come on)...It don't cost that much
(Come on)...I'm gonna pop that clutch
(Let's go) and take a ride today
Let's go and drive that King's Highway
(Let's go) listen what I say
I'm gonna learn to drive that King's Highway...today
Reaching high and checking every detail
Got the wind at my back... I can not fail
Take my hand and hold on tight
Got miles to go...we're gonna make it alright

(SOLO)
Take the wheel...tell me how does it feel
To leave the world behind
Living life with no regrets
Live free, Live wild
Baby, don't look back...
Just Drive
CH
