Jim White – 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

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

King of the Road
