Lyrics

Trailers for sale or rent Rooms to let, fifteen cents No phone, no pool, no pets I ain't got no cigarettes Oh, but two hours of pushin' broom Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room I'm a man of means, by no means King of the road Third boxcar, midnight train Destination: Bangor, Maine Old worn-out clothes and shoes I don't pay no union dues I smoke old stogies I have found Short, but not too big around I'm a man of beans, by no means King of the road I know every engineer on every train All of their children and all of their names Every handout in every town And every lock that ain't locked when no one's around I say, trailers for sale or rent Rooms to let, fifteen cents No phone, no pool, no pets I ain't got no cigarettes Oh, but two hours of pushin' broom Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room I'm a man of means, by no means King of the road I know every engineer on every train All of their children and all of their names Every handout in every town And every lock that ain't locked when no one's around I say, trailers for sale or rent Rooms to let, fifteen cents No phone, no pool, no pets I ain't got no cigarettes Oh, but two hours of pushin' broom Buys an eight by twelve four-bit room I'm a man of beans, by no means King of the road
