Chorus:
A            D             E            A
Trailers for sale or rent, rooms to let 50 cents.
            D             E
No phone no pool no pets, I ain't got no ciggaretes.
A            D                    E               A
Two hours of pushin broom, buys a eight by twelve forbit room.
             D                  E(One Strum)
I'm a man of means by no means, King of the Road.

A             D               E           A
Third Box car midnight train, destination Bangor Maine.
             D               E
Old worn out suit and shoes, I don't pay no union dues.
        A            D             E                A
I smoke old stogey's I have found, short but not to big around.
              D                  E(One Strum)
I'm a mans of means by no means, King of the Road.
