Rufus Wainwright & Teddy Thompson - King Of The Road текст песни

Trailers for sale or rent,

Rooms to let - 50 cents,

No phone, no pool, no pets,

Aint got no cigarettes, ah but

Two hours of pushing broom

Buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room

Hes a man of means by no means

King of the road.

Third box car midnight train

Destination bangor, maine

Old worn-out suits and shoes,

Dont pay no union dues.

He smokes old stogies he has found

Short, but not too big around

Hes a man of means by no means

King of the road

(he knows) every engineer on every train

All of their children and all of their names

And every hang-out in every town

Every lock that aint locked

When no ones around.

I say, trailers for sale or rent,

Rooms to let - 50 cents,

No phone, no pool, no pets,

Aint got no cigarettes.

Ive got two hours of pushing broom

Buys an 8 by 12 four-bit room

Hes a man of means by no means

King of the road.

King of the road.

King of the road.

King of the road
