    King of the Road, one of the most catchy songs ever. When a kid I used to sing it over and over and over. Roger was so entertaining.

    It’s amazing how many hits were written with the same three chords. Beautiful tunes expertly played and sung.

    He would have been 85 today. RIP. Did you know that Chug A Lug is number 9 out of out of 100 for the greatest country drinking songs? I like Doo Wacka Doo.

    "King of the Road" is the reason I learned to snap my fingers.
    It was the semi-permanent ear worm of my childhood (beginning in 1964 or -65, boosted by it being played a LOT on the radio for several years), and it continues to pop up in my mind by spells. Coming up on sixty years -- a long, long time, just as Jimmy said.

    I had a good friend who lived in Plainview Texas where Jimmy Dean lived. She recently passed away. Her son is a highway 🛣️ patrol officer. They are good friends of ours. Our familiy goes to Wednesday night bible study at their home and he comes to our Sunday morning meeting in our home. I live with my oldest daughter and her wonderful husband. My friend’s wife is a nurse and she works Sundays in the Plainview Texas hospital. Our friends both call me grammy. 😅😅😊😊

He'd just bought his sweetheart a platinum and diamond Engagement ring. We were in northern canada and she was in Spain while he was makjng his fourtune. Half an hour later, we were at the outdoor swimming pool...where he disappeared. Later that night, they brought his beautiful body up from the deep.

    He was funny and clever and could churn out catchy songs like nobody's business and that's a winning combo.I find Roger Miller very attractive especially later on in the 1970s with the beard. I love The Hat from the Muppet Show. He seemed so easy going.

    I've been listing to his music for over half a cencuty and I never realized until I saw this that at some points he's actually competing with his guitar to see who is a better guitar...and he wins. Roger Miller is a better guitar than an actual guitar.
