- KING OF THE ROAD
- Roger Miller
-
- 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 an 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 clothes 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 of their 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,
- 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 an eight by twelve four-bit room
- I'm a man of means by no means
- King of the road.
