THE BUCKAROOS
"King Of The Road"

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 pushing broom buys a eight by twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means King of the Road

Third box car 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 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

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 pushing broom buys a eight by twelve four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means King of the Road
