Would anyone:
Like to hear me try to sing this?
Not tonight for sure but maybe soon.
Roger Miller - King Of The Road Lyrics
Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let...fifty cents.
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, 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 suit 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 means by no means
King of the road.
I know every engineer on every train
All of their children, and all of their names
And every handout in every town
And every lock that ain't locked
When no one's around.
I sing,
Trailers for sale or rent
Rooms to let, fifty cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, 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've be practicing a bit and when I start all my cats think something is wrong with me. When you try to sing something and every cat in the house appears with worried looks on their faces and climbs up to look you right in your face how good could it possible be?
Seriously I can't mimic Roger Miller, but I like the song.
