King Of The Road Songtext / Lyric

Trailer for sale or rent,
Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets,
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah but, two hours of
Pushin' broom buys a
Eight by twelve
Four-bit room
I'm a man of means
By no means,
King of the road

Third boxcar midnight train,
Destination Bangor, Maine
Old worn out suit and shoes,
I don't pay no union dues
I smoke old stogies
I have found,
Short but not too big around
I'm a man of means
By no means,
King of the road

I know every engineer
On every train
All the children
And all of their names
And every handout
In every town
And every lock
That ain't locked
When no-one's around
I sing...

Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets,
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah but, two hours
Of pushin' broom buys a
Eight by twelve
Four-bit room
I'm a man of means
By no means,
King of the road

Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets,
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah but, two hours of
Pushin' broom buys a
Eight by twelve four-bit room...
