Refrain:
Bb            Eb
Trailers for sale or rent,
F            Bb
Rooms to let fifty cents,
Bb            Eb
No phone, no pool, no pets.
F
I ain't got no cigarettes.

Chorus:
         Bb            Eb
Ah, but..two hours of pushin' broom,
          F               Bb
Buys an...eight-by-twelve four-bit room.
      Bb      Eb
I'm a man of means by no means,
F           Bb
King of the road.

Verse 1:
Bb             Eb
Third boxcar, midnight train,
F           Bb
Destination Bangor, Maine.
Bb            Eb
Old worn out suit and shoes,
F
I don't pay no union dues.

Verse 2:
          Bb           Eb
I smoke...old stogies I have found,
F              Bb
Short, but not too big around.
Bb            Eb
I'm a man of means by no means,
F           Bb
King of the road.

I know...every engineer on every train,
Gb                          B
All their children, 'n all of their names,
      B               E
And...every handout in every town,
      Gb
And...every lock that ain't locked when no one's around.
