King of the Road
Roger Miller
Trailer for sale or rent rooms to left fifty cents
No phone no pool no pets I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah but two hours of pushing 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
Every engineer on every train all of 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 trailer for sale or rent,
