The Wanton Seed
In the wind with long legged Sally
Smell rice burnin' won't you step aside...Yea
True Americana is the only ride
Chorus:
I wanna live and ride free
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...I die free...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me
Black leather and Chrome wheels
Loud and proud on hard cold steel
I wanna live and ride free...
Kickstart to Freedom don't tread on me
If I die...let me be...Kickstart to Freedom
Don't tread on me...
Raisin' hell all week down at Daytona
See in Sturgis in S

Words and Music by Roger Miller
Got a letter just this mornin’ it was postmarked Omaha
It was typed and neatly written offerin’ me this better job
Better job at higher wages, expenses paid and a car
But I’m on TV here locally and I can’t quit, I’m a star
Hah-ha I come on TV grinnin,’ wearin’ pistols and a hat
It’s a kiddy show and I’m a hero of the younger set
I’m the number one attraction every supermarket parkin’ lot
I’m the king of Kansas City, no thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot
CHORUS:
Kansas City star, that’s what I are
Yodel-deedle ay-hee, you oughta see my car
I drive a big old Cadillac with wire wheels, got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I’m the number one attraction every supermarket parkin’ lot
I’m the king of Kansas City, no thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot
CHORUS
SPOKEN: Stay tuned, gonna have a Popeye cartoon in a minute
