King Of The Road

Jim White

Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents 
No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain't got no cigarettes 
I am a, two hours of pushin' broom buys a 
Eight by ten four-bit room 
I'm a man of means by no means, caause I'm a  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,cause i'm a  king of the road 
King of The Road. I'm just a King of the Road
I know every engineer on every train 
All the children and all the good names 
 every handout in every town 
And if it's locked itt ain't locked if no-one's around 
I say... 
Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents 
I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road 
'Cause i'm a King of the Road
I'm just a King of the Road
