King of the Road - A Roger Miller Cover

This is just a test of a little Zoom H2 Recorder that I recently adopted and gave a home :o)



King Of The Road

by Roger Miller



Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents

No phone, no pool, no pets, I aint got no cigarettes

Ah but, two hours of pushin broom buys a

Eight by twelve four-bit room

Im a man of means by no means, king of the road



Third boxcar midnight train, destination bangor, maine

Old worn out suit and shoes, I dont pay no union dues

I smoke old stogies I have found, short but not too big around

Im a man of means by no means, king of the road



I know every engineer on every train

All the children and all of their names

And every handout in every town

And every lock that aint locked when no-ones around

I sing...



Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents

No phone, no pool, no pets, I aint got no cigarettes

Ah but, two hours of pushin broom buys a

Eight by twelve four-bit room

Im a man of means by no means, king of the road



Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents

No phone, no pool, no pets, I aint got no cigarettes

Ah but, two hours of pushin broom buys a

Eight by twelve four-bit room........
