“King of the Road”
Verse
Am
Crack of dawn on a Sunday morn
C G Am
and the convoys in full flow
Am
Pajero jeeps cars and vans
C G Am
with the horse box on the tow

Heading out to the edge of town
C G Am
there’s a big race going down
Am
First nose to pass the two mile mark
F G Am
is crowned the king of the road
Am
Remember Chip’n’pin and the Indian
C G Am
in the class A free leg race
Am
When the Chip took the gold on the mullingar road,
C G Am
it wasn’t the Indians day
Am
But the Indian has blood to win
C G Am
He was bred by the big Gang Joyce
Am
for he’s sired the foals, worth their weight in gold
C G Am
Taking home now many a race
Chorus
F
When your hooring down the road
C G Am
at 90 mile an hour on the back of a sulky racer
F C G F
with the wind in your hair and the reigns in your hands and the horse is in your favour
G Am
Your King of the road
Verse
Am
There ain’t no flies on the Big Noise
C G Am
If they are they’re paying rent
Am
When the Big Noise ran with I’m the Man
C G Am
and the record he did break
Am C G Am
3:57 down the Dualer flat out on a two mile stretch
Am F G Am
Never be a swore looser, cough up now and pay your bets
Chorus

When your hooring down the road

at 90 mile an hour on the back of a sulky racer

with the wind in your hair and the reigns in your hands and the horse is in your favour

Your King of the road

for the Streamline Sapphire mare

one morning in the Derry air

crew all part of the Indians mob
