Jim White

Michael Davis Pratt (born March 10, 1957) known professionally as Jim White, is a Southern American singer-songwriter and guitarist. White's music can be loosely described as alternative country, but veers off in different, sometimes experimental directions with occasional nods[citation needed] to Tom Waits and the literary narratives of Flannery O'Connor, Cormac McCarthy, and Harry Crews. more »

Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents 
No phone, no pool, no pets, I ain't got no cigarettes 
I am a, two hours of pushin' broom buys a 
Eight by ten four-bit room 
I'm a man of means by no means, cause I'm a king of the road 
Third boxcar 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 
I'm a man of means by no means,cause I'm a king of the road 
King of the road. I'm just a king of the road
I know every engineer on every train 
All the children and all the good names 
 every handout in every town 
And if it's locked it ain't locked if no-one's around 
I say... 
Trailer for sale or rent, rooms to let fifty cents 
I'm a man of means by no means, king of the road 
'Cause I'm a king of the road
I'm just a king of the road
King of the road
