king of the road

The Proclaimers

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 sing...
