That casserole is on time and I'm sure the smoker made it even better.
Thanks for the earbug, I'll be hearing that all weekend now. :doh:
"King of the Road" is a song written by country singer Roger Miller, who first recorded it in November 1964.[1] The lyrics tell of the day-to-day life of a hobo who, despite being poor (a "man of means by no means"), revels in his freedom, describing himself humorously and cynically as the "king of the road". It was Miller's fifth single for Smash Records.
:laugh: I had Man of Constant Sorrow in my head and couldn't figure out what you were talking about! Lol
King of the Road according to the story I read was written in a limo after landing at an airport. Think it was Chicago. Miller was behind on his contract to write a song and drove by an area with trailers stacked and the sign read “trailers for sale or rent”. He was a genius. Tough youth and early departure but “while alive he lived”. His song “I’ve been A Long Time Leaving” is one of my favorites
And the breakfast casserole is killer
Thanks for the background on this. I always thought it was about a lost love, but never made the connection that it was his dog.My friend Richard Leigh wrote nine number 1 songs. The stories behind the songs are amazing to me. His song "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue" had to do with his little dog Amanda as she grew old and started losing her eyesight as her brown eyes turned blue.
Just keep on playin’
Love the dog photo
