Julie London - King of the Road lyrics
[Julie London - King of the Road lyrics]
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 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
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
