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 pushin' broom

buys an eight by twelve four-bit room

i'm a man of means by no means

king of the road

midnight train

destination - bangor

maine

old worn out clothes 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 their 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
