King Of The Road

King Of The Road

Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let
fifty cents
No phone no pool no pets
I aint got no cigarettes
Ah but two hours of pushin broom
Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room
Im 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 dont pay no union dues
I smoke old stogies I have found
Short but not too big around
Im a man of means by no means
King of the road.

I know every engineer on every train
All of their children and all of their names
And every handout in every town
And every lock that aint locked
When no ones around.
I sing
