King Of The Road
Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
Oh, but two hours of pushin' them brooms
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 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
Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let, fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got one cigarette
Oh, but two hours of pushin' brooms
Buys an eight-by-twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means, by no means
King of the roads king of the road
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
But I'm still king of the road, baby
Old worn out suit and shoes
I don't pay no union
