Message:: [QUOTE="Andy, post: 35021, member: 645"]Here is a song Jody should know, King Of The RoadRoger Miller Trailers for sale or rentRooms to let...fifty cents.No phone, no pool, no petsI ain't got no cigarettesAh, but..two hours of pushin' broomBuys an eight by twelve four-bit roomI'm a man of means by no meansKing of the road. Third boxcar, midnight trainDestination...Bangor, Maine.Old worn out clothes and shoes,I don't pay no union dues,I smoke old stogies I have foundShort, but not too big aroundI'm a man of means by no meansKing of the road. I know every engineer on every trainAll of their children, and all of their namesAnd every handout in every townAnd every lock that ain't lockedWhen no one's around. I sing,Trailers for sale or rentRooms to let, fifty centsNo phone, no pool, no petsI ain't got no cigarettesAh, but, two hours of pushin' broomBuys an eight by twelve four-bit roomI'm a man of means by no meansKing of the road. One of my favorites but for some reason it did not come to my mind till now. It makes me remember a song my dad used to sing as well when we went out as a family and that was something like, "We ain't got a barrell of money"................................honey,just singing this song and getting alongby n by.or something like that.[/QUOTE]
