KING OF THE ROAD

 
Trailer for sale or rent,
rooms to let for 50 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 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 know every engineer on every train
All the 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...

Trailer for sale or rent,
rooms to let for 50 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

Trailers for sale or rent,
rooms to let for 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets,
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah but, ........ (to fade)
