Elvis Presley King Of The Road
Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let - 50 cents,
No phone, no pool, no pets,
I Ain't got no cigarettes, ah but
Two hours of pushing broom
buys an 8 by 12 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 suits 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
Well, I know Every engineer on every train
All of their children and all of their names
And every hang-out in every town
Every lock that ain't locked
When no one's around.
I say, Trailers for sale or rent,
Rooms to let - 50 cents,
No phone, no pool, no pets,
Ain't got no cigarettes.
I've got two hours of pushing broom
buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room
I'm a man of means by no means
King of the road.
