Verse 1
(C major) Trailer for sale, (G major)
(F major) all rent
Rooms (G major) to let, (C major) fifty cents
No phone, (G major) no pool, (F major) no pets
I (G major) ain't got no cigarettes
I've got two (C major) hours of (F major) pushin' room
Twice an eight (G major) by twelve (C major) four -bit room
Mama, man (B flat major) of means, (F major) by no means, (G major)
king of the road (C major)
Third boxcar midnight (F major) train, (G major)
destination Ban (C major) gor, Maine
Old worn out suit (F major) and shoes,
(G major) I don't pay no union dues
I spoke of (C major) old stokies (F major) I have found
Short (G major) but not too (C major) big a round
I'm a man of (F major) means by no means
(G major) King of the road (C major)
I know every engineer on (F major) every train
All (G major) of the children and (C major) all of their names
And every handout in (F major) every town
And (G major) every lock that ain't locked
when no one's around, I say
Trader (C major) for ci (F major) garettes,
(G major) blues to let (C major) the dissents
No phone, no pool, (F major) no pets,
(G major) I ain't got no (F major) (G major) cigarettes
I've got two (C major) hours of (F major) pushin' kumbas
Eight (G major) by twelve (C major) walkin' through my love
Well, (F major) that's what I'm known to be (G major)
King of the road (C major) (G major)
King of the road (C major) (G major)
King of the road (C major)
(G major) Well, (C major) (F major) here I sit high get (B flat major) ting ideas
And (C major) nothing but a fool to (F major) live like this
Out on line and (B flat major) running wild
Sit (C major) ting home with a (F major) muggled child
Dang me, dang (B flat major) me
You (C major) ought to take a rope and hang (F major) me
Higher from the highest (B flat major) tree
Woman (C major) won't you wait
for (F major) me (G major) (F major) (A major) (F major)
Dang it, dang (B flat major) it
They (C major) oughta take the rope and hang (F major) it
Higher from the highest tree (B flat major)
Woman won't you wait (G major) for
me (F major) (G major) (F major) (G major) (C major) (F major) (G major) (F major) (G major) (A major)
In the (D major) summertime,
when all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, (A major) I'll be blue
But you don't (D major) want my love
Some other time,
that's what you say when I'm with you
Then you laugh at me and (A major) make me cry
But you don't (D major) want my love
You don't (G major) seem to care
a thing about me
You'd rather live without me
than to (D major) have my arms around you
When the nights are cold
and (G major) you're so all alone (A major)
In the (D major) summertime,
when all the trees and leaves are green
And the redbird sings, (A major) I'm blue
Cause you don't want
my (D major) love (D minor) (D major) (G major)
(C major) Engine, engine, number nine
Coming down (G major) the (C major) railroad line
How much further back did he (G major) get on? (D minor)
Oh, that (G major) suitcase that he carried,
(D minor) I've looked for it everywhere. (G major)
It (D minor) just ain't here among (G major) the rest,
and (C major) I'm (A major) a little (D major) up set. (D minor)
(G major) Oh, tell (C major) me.
Engine, engine, number nine.
Coming down (G major) the (C major) railroad line.
I (G minor) know he (G major) got off (C major) in Baltimore
(F major) (Faug) A (F major) hundred ten miles
ain't much distance
But (C major) it sure do make (F major) a dif (C major) ference
I (G major) don't think he loves me anymore
(C major) (F major) I (G major) don't think he
loves me anymore (C major)
Oo (F major) h...
(C major) Ooh... (E flat major) (E flat major) (C major) (E flat major)
Oo (C major) h...
We're home!
