King Of The Road

King Of The Road

Description: 32 count, 4 wall, intermediate line dance
Music: King Of The Road by Randy Travis [120 bpm / CD: Simply The Best Linedancing Album]
King Of The Road by Roger Miller [124 bpm / CD: Millenniums Greatest Line Dance Party / CD: Steppin' Country 2]
Start dancing on lyrics

VINE RIGHT, BRUSH, ½ TURN RIGHT, SHUFFLE SIDE, ROCK STEP
1-3 Step right to side, cross left behind right turning ¼ right on left foot, step right forward facing side wall
& Small brush forward with left sole
4 Brush ball of left back, lifting left foot up bending left knee slightly turning another ¼ right to end facing back
Option: As an easier variation for counts &4, you can just brush the ball of left foot forward on count 4 like a regular vine ½ turn with a brush
5&6 Shuffle left to left side
7-8 Rock back on ball of right, replace weight forward to left foot

STEP, LOCK, TURN AND SHUFFLE FORWARD, ROCK STEP, COASTER STEP
1 Step right to side
2 Cross left tightly behind right popping right knee up, keeping ball of right on floor (left leg should be straight)
3&4 Toward the wall ¼ to your right, chassé forward with right foot

3-4 Step left across in front of right allowing right foot to swivel naturally, snap with right hand
5-6 Step right across in front of left allowing left foot to swivel naturally, snap with right hand

&1 Step back to right side with right foot, place left foot back to left side so feet are apart
2 Hold
3-4 Turn right knee in like Elvis, hold
5-8 Elvis knees left, right, left, right

REPEAT

If you want to do this dance to Randy Travis' version of "King Of The Road" from the Traveler soundtrack, there is a very irregular break in the normal rhythm at the 2:00 point which puts you badly off beat. This happens after the 7th repetition of the dance and it only happens once. To make it work you can add more Elvis knees for approximately 16"ish" counts(instrumentals with snaps) at this point and then start again from the beginning with his lyrics through the rest of the song. The extra Elvis knees can be slow, fast, or whatever, be creative.
The original version by Roger Miller does not do this and you will do the dance straight through with no problems. With either version you should start the dance with the lyrics so that it phrases out right.
