Joanna snuck backstage at The Imposters’ show
she winked at the guard and he let her go
she was hangin’ out with the King and his court
she was a little surprised ‘cause he was kinda short
she gave him a kiss and my CD
he slipped it in his coat and said he’d listen to me.

And now all my hopes and all my dreams are
ridin’ in the pocket of The King.

I know The King will call one of these days
he’ll say – Hey J.V. let’s get together and play
we can write some tunes and lay down some trax
for our collector fans we’ll press expensive wax
we’ll do a CD together and a video too
pretty soon you’ll be rich
and everyone will love you.

And now all my hopes and all my dreams are
ridin’ in the pocket of The King.

It’s just like a movie with a happy end
now that me and The King are close personal friends.

It’s been a few months I haven’t heard anything
but I know soon my phone will ring
he’ll say – Hey Velvet, s’up? this is The King,
I heard your disc, man you sure can sing
and The Mocking Birds are a rockin’ good band
let’s all get together and tour the land.
OK!
And now all my hopes and all my dreams are
ridin’ in the pocket of The King.
