C F G C Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let, fifty cents, F G No phone, no pool, no pets. I ain't got no cigarettes, ah but C F G C Two hours of pushing broom buys a eight-by-twelve four-bit room. F G C I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road. C F G C Third boxcar midnight train, destination Bangor, Maine, F G C Old worn out suit and shoes. I don't pay no union dues. I smoke F G C Old stogies I have found, short but not too big around. F G C I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road. C# F# I know every engineer on every train, G7# C# All of the children and all of their names, F# And every handout in every town G7# And ev'ry lock that ain't locked when G# No one's around. I sing: C# F# G# C# Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let, fifty cents, F G No phone, no pool, no pets. I ain't got no cigarettes, ah but C# F# G# C# Two hours of pushing broom buys a eight-by-twelve four-bit room. F# G# C# I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road. rep. last verse
