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, ah but

Two hours of pushing broom buys an eight by twelve fourbit room,

I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road

Third box car 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 ev'ry lock that ain't locked when

No one's around I sing...
