King Of The Road by lyrics:

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain’t got no cigarettes

********

Ah, but two hours of pushing broom
Buys a eight by 12 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
Every handout in every town
Every lock that ain’t locked when no one’s around

*******

I sing, trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain’t got no cigarettes

********

Ah, but two hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight by 12 four-bit room
I’m a man of means, by no means
King of the road

********

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain’t got no cigarettes
Ah, but, two hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight by 12 four-bit room

Rooms to let fifty cents,

No phone , no pool, no pets.

I ain’t got no cigarettes.

Ah, b ut..two ho urs of pushin’ broom,

Buys an…eight-by -twelve four-bit room.

I’m a man of means by no means,

King of t he road.

Third boxc ar, midnight train,

Destinati on Bangor, Maine.

Old worn out suit and shoes,

I don’t pay no union dues.

I smok e…old st ogies I have found,

Short, but not too big around.

I’m a man of means by no means,

King of t he road.

I kno w…every engi neer on every train,

All their children, ‘ n all of their names,

An d…every hand out in every town,

An d…every lock that ain’t locked when no one’s around.

I sing …trailers fo r sale or rent,

Rooms to let, fifty cents,

I ain’t got no cigarettes.

Ah, b ut, two ho urs of pushin’ broom,

Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room.

No phone , no pool, no pets.

I ain’t got no cigarettes.

Ah, b ut, two ho urs of pushin’ broom,

Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room…
