KING OF THE ROAD

[G]Trailers for [C]sale or rent
[D7]Rooms to let...[G]fifty cents.
No phone, no [C]pool, no pets
[D7]I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, but..two[G] hours of [C]pushin' broom
Buys an [D7]eight by twelve [G]Four-bit room
I'm a man of [C]means by no [D7]means
King of the [G]road.


Third boxcar, [C]midnight train
[D7]Destination...[G]Bangor, Maine.
Old worn out [C]suits and shoes,
[D7]I don't pay no union dues,
I smoke [G]old stogies [C]I have found
[D7]Short, but not too [G]big around
I'm a man of [C]means by no [D7]means
King of the [G]road.

I know every engineer on [C]every train
[D7]All of their children, and [G]all of their names
And every handout in [C]every town
And [D7]every lock that ain't locked
When no one's around.


I sing,
[G]Trailers for [C]sale or rent
[D7]Rooms to let...[G]fifty cents.
No phone, no [C]pool, no pets
[D7]I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, but..two[G] hours of [C]pushin' broom
Buys an [D7]eight by twelve [G]Four-bit room
I'm a man of [C]means by no [D7]means
King of the [G]road.
