Song by Roger Miller<br /><br>

Trailer for sale or rent<br>

Rooms to let...fifty cents.<br>

No phone, no pool, no pets<br>

I ain't got no cigarettes<br>

Ah, but..two hours of pushin' broom<br>

Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room<br>

I'm a man of means by no means<br>

King of the road.<br>

<br>

Third boxcar, midnight train<br>

Destination...Bangor, Maine.<br>

Old worn out clothes and shoes,<br>

I don't pay no union dues,<br>

I smoke old stogies I have found<br>

Short, but not too big around<br>

I'm a man of means by no means<br>

King of the road.<br>

<br>

I know every engineer on every train<br>

All of their children, and all of their names<br>

And every handout in every town<br>

And every lock that ain't locked<br>

When no one's around.<br>

<br>

I sing,<br>

Trailers for sale or rent<br>

Rooms to let, fifty cents<br>

No phone, no pool, no pets<br>

I ain't got no cigarettes<br>

Ah, but, two hours of pushin' broom<br>

Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room<br>

I'm a man of means by no means<br>

King of the road. <br>
