King Of The Road

Song King Of The Road
Artist Dean Martin
Album Forever Cool

Lyrics

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 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 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 sing... [Chorus]
