Trailer for sale or rent,
Rooms to let, fifty cents.
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
I've got two hours of patient room
I've got day and night self -service room
I'm a man of means by no means
King of the road
Third boxcar, midnight train
Destin ation Bangor, Maine
All worn out, suit and shoes
He don't pay no union dues
He smokes old snow heaps he has found
Short but not to be around
He's 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,
And every hand down in every town,
And every lock that ain't locked
when no one's around,
That's it, trailer for sale or wreck,
Rooms to let fifty cents,
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes, my butt
Two hours of pushin' broom by sun
Eight by twelve, four -bit room, my mutt
Let other beings find no means
King of the road
King of the road
King of the road
King of the road
God!
