King of The Road
Trailer 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 clothes 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.

Hey! Love The Proclaimers. Saw them at The Gorge.
Never got to know you that well Tom (well actually through your blog I got to know an awful lot about you!) But am glad I got to meet you while you were in Seattle. You have certainly influenced my magic, and you made a big difference in the magic community here in the Northwest. Thanks for all you've given us.
Good luck, and all the best to you in this next chapter of your life!
