Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][D][E][E]

[Verse 1]
[A]Trailers for sal[D]e or rent,
[E]rooms to let, fif[A]ty cents
No phone, no [D]pool, no pets,
[E]I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, [A]but, two hours of [D]pushin' broom
Buys [E]an eight by twelve [A]four-bit room
I'm a man of [D]means by no means,
[E]king of the road

[Verse 2]
[A]Third boxcar, mid[D]night train,
[E]destination Ban[A]gor, Maine
Old worn-out [D]suits and shoes
[E]I don't pay no union dues
I [A]smoke old stogies [D]I have found,
[E]short, but not too big[A] around
I'm a man of [D]means by no means,
[E]king of the road
[F]I know

[Bridge 1]
[Bb]every engineer on [Eb]every train
[F]All their children, and [Bb]all of their names
And every hand out in [Eb]every town
And [F]every lock that ain't locked
when no one's around

[Verse 3]
I [Bb]sing, trailers for [Eb]sale or rent,
[F]rooms to let, fif[Bb]ty cents
No phone, [Eb]no pool, no pets,
[F]I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, [Bb]but, two hours of [Eb]pushin' broom
Buys [F]an eight by twelve [Bb]four-bit room
I'm a man of [Eb]means by no means,
[F]king of the road

[Verse 4]
[Bb]Trailers for sale [Eb]or rent,
[F]rooms to let, fif[Bb]ty cents
No phone, no [Eb]pool, no pets,
[F]I ain't got no cigarettes
Ah, [Bb]but, two hours of [Eb]pushin' broom
Buys [F]an eight by twelve [Bb]four-bit room
[Fade out]
