King of the Road Songtext
von Joey + Rory

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
Ain′t got no cigarettes
Two hours of pushing broom buys a 8 by 12 4-bed 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
They're 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 the children and all of their names
Every handout in every town
And every lock that ain′t locked when no one′s around

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
Ain't got no cigarettes
Two hours of pushing broom buys a 8 by 12 4-bed room
I′m a man of means by no means
King of the road
King of the road
