Third box car midnight train, destination Bangor, Maine,
Old worn out suit and shoes, I don t pay no union dues, I smoke
Old stogies I have found, short, but not too big around,

No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain t got no cigarettes, ah but
Two hours of pushing broom buys a eight by twelve fourbit room,
I m a man of means by no means, King of the Road
