The Return of Roger Miller is the second studio album of country music singer-songwriter Roger Miller. It was released under the Smash Records label in 1965. It reached No. 2 on the country album charts and No. 4 on the Billboard 200, and was ultimately certified as Gold by the RIAA.
Two singles were released from the album, "Do-Wacka-Do" and "King of the Road." The latter was the biggest crossover hit of Miller's career reaching the top of the country, adult contemporary, and English singles charts, and peaking in the top ten in the Billboard 100 and Canadian singles charts. The track "You Can't Roller Skate in a Buffalo Herd" was later released as a single in 1966. "In the Summertime" was a renamed and re-recorded version of Miller's 1960 single "You Don't Want My Love."
