King of the Road

Lyrics

Trailers for sale or rent
 Rooms to let - 50 cents
 No phone, no pool, no pets
 Ain't got no cigarettes, ah but
 Two hours of pushing broom
 Buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room
 He's a man of means by no means
 King of the road.
 Third box car midnight train
 Destination Bangor, Maine
 Old worn-out suits and shoes
 Don't pay no union dues.
 He smokes old stogies he has found
 Short, but not too big around
 He's a man of means by no means
 King of the road
 (He knows) Every engineer on every train
 All of their children and all of their names
 And every hang-out in every town
 Every lock that ain't locked
 When no one's around.
 I say, Trailers for sale or rent
 Rooms to let - 50 cents
 No phone, no pool, no pets
 Ain't got no cigarettes.
 I've got two hours of pushing broom
 Buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room
 He's a man of means by no means
 King of the road.
 King of the road.
 King of the road.
 King of the road.
