King of the Road Lyrics


Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettesBut two hours of pushing broom
Eight by twelve four bit room
I'm a man of means by no means
I'm King of the roadThird boxcar midnight train
Destination Bangor Maine
Old worn out suit and shoes
I don't pay no union duesI smoke old stogies I have found
Short but not too big around
I'm a Man of means by no means
I'm King of the roadI know every engineer on every train
All of the children and all of their names
An' every handout in every town
And every lock that ain't locked when no one's aroundI sing, Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets

Fresh out of cigarettesBut two hours of pushing broom
Buys an Eight by twelve four bit room
I'm a Man of means by no means
I'm King of the roadKing of the road
King of the road

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Statler Brothers were an American country music vocal group founded in 1955 in Staunton, Virginia. Originally performing gospel music at local churches, the group billed themselves as The Four Star Quartet, and later The Kingsmen. In 1963, when the song "Louie, Louie" by the garage rock band also called The Kingsmen became famous, the group elected to bill themselves as The Statler Brothers. Despite the name, only two members of the group (Don and Harold Reid) are actual brothers and none have the surname of "Statler".
