There is an old song called "King of the Camp. . . "?

Question

Roger Miller ( I think) did a song called King of the Road. I was thinking that someone did a parody of that song, and it was called King of the Camp, but I don't know who sang it. They also did a parody of "How much is that doggie in the window." I think it was called "How much is that hound dog in the window." Do you know who did these parodies, and perhaps where I can find the lyrics on the internet? My kids have heard about them, and really want to know how the songs go. Thanks for your help!

Answer 1

There was a parody of "King of the Road", called "Thing on the Road" which was performed by Phil Alexander
After doing a little digging, I found a page full of parodies for "King of the Road"

Answer 2

Homer and Jethro did the parody of Doggie in the Window so they probably did the parody of King of the Road - and yes, it was Roger Miller who did it. Bit of trivia: Jody Miller did a female take on it called Queen of the House.
