paroles de chanson King of the Road - Giant Sand

Hey, cut out that Chicago machine

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes

Ah, but 12 hours of pushing broom
There's a eight by 12 four-bit room
I'm a man of means, by no means
King of the road

Third boxcar, midnight train
Destination - Bangor, Maine
Worn out shirt and shoes
I don't pay no union dues

Smoking, old stogies I've found
Short, but not too big around
A man of means, by no means
King of the road

I know every engineer on every train
All of the children and all of their names
Every handout in every town
Every lock that ain't locked when no one's around

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
Phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes

Ah, but two hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight by 12 four-bit room
A man of means, by no means
King of the road

Trailer for sale or rent
Rooms to let, 50 cents
No phone, no pool, no pets
I ain't got no cigarettes

Two hours of pushing broom
Buys an eight by 12 four-bit room
A man of means, by no means
King of the road

King of the road
