The King Of The Road

The King Of The Road - Freddie McGregor

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 a

Eight by twelve four-bit 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 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

And every handout in every town

And every lock that ain't locked when no-one's around

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

Trailers 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 a

Eight by twelve four-bit room

I'm a man of means by no means king of the road

You know I am

You know I am

You know I am

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 king of the road

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 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'm a man of means by no means king of the road

King of the road

King of the road

King of the road

King of the road
