SONG:   King Of The Road
ARTIST: Roger Miller

 
[A]Trailers for [D]sale or rent, [E]rooms to let [A]fifty cents,
[A]No phone, no (D)pool, no pets,[E]I ain't got no cigarettes,
[E]Ah, but (A)two hours of [D]pushin' broom,
[D] buys a (E)eight by ten [A]four bit room,
[A]I'm a man of [D]means by no means, [E]King of the [A]Road,

Third boxcar [D]midnight train, [E]destination [A]Bangor Main,
Old worn out [D]suit and shoes, [E]I don't pay no union dues, 
[E]I smoke [A]old stogies [D]I have found,
[E]short but not too [A]big around,
I'm a man of [D]means by no means, [E]King of the [A]Road,

Middle Section:
I know [D]every engineer on [A]every train,
[E]All of their children and [A]all of their names,
And [D]every handout in [A]every town,
And [E]every lock that ain't locked when no ones around,

I sing, [A]trailers for [D]sale or rent,
[E]rooms to let [A]fifty cents,
No phone, no [D]pool, no pets,
[E]I ain't got no cigarettes,
[E]Ah, but [A]two hours of [D]pushin' broom,
[D]buys a [E]eight by ten [A]four bit room,
[A]I'm a man of [D]means by no means, [E]King of the [A]Road,
[A]I'm a man of [D]means by no means, [E]King of the [A]Road.
