JJ Cale - King City Lyrics






I am walking to King city
Not a friend who I know
I can see the lights now
I can feel the city glow

Hey miss fortune, is on the highway
Isn't bound to slow you down
I can see the lights now
And feel the city sound

Well I'm walking to King city
got my straight walking shoes
I'm walking to King city
got them hitchhikers blues

Walking to King city
With my straight walking shoes
I'm walking to King city
Got them hitchhiking blues.

    I did hitchhike some in the 70's. I didn't have my guitar case. I just wanted to cover some space and get out of that place. I went some where and there I was. Thanks J.J.

  21. J.... C....

    the break into King City sounds so much like Drifter's Wife but then changes during the vocals... strange...

    J.... C....

    He'd do something very similar before playing 'miss ol' st louis' too. i love it.. and I'd do anything to be able to play it! for now I just listen :)

  22. B.... ....

    does anyone know how to play this ? tabs ? anyone?

  23. E.... H....

    "this is a little thing not on the record.." I always wondered how many songs J.J. made that were kept "off the records"...hmmm?

    E.... H....

    if truly interested in finding out how many titles are jj's I suggest that you go to Facebook eric clapton and inquire there as MSSER. CLAPTON did an appreciation of John Burton "jj" CALE'S 'S work about 5 or so years ago it waz shortly after "jj's" passing. just THOUGHT you MIGHT like to KNOW and ACTUALLY some great ARTISTS pay tribute to the TROUBADOUR PAR EXCELLENCE. sldc

    E.... H....

    Well..if he started writing songs around 20 yrs of age ..that Means 54 yrs  @ at least 1 song a day ..(.every time he opened his mouth a song came out )  so that Means about 19,710 songs  give or take  !!

    E.... H....

    That lil tune came out of a radio interview with some dude few yrs back so I think JJ improvised. He also worked as a sound engineer and played in bands for long time and wrote for others too. I write songs and sometimes they take a long time to finish. They reckon all up JJ did under a 1000 tunes - and everyone a gem ..

  24. B.... A....

    thank you. just a great musician! R.I.P. J.J.Cale

  25. D.... B....
