Misheard Lyrics:
Buys a eight by 12 for a bedroom
I'm a man of means, by no means
King of the road
Foot box car, midnight train
Destination, banger, queen
Old worn out Sunday shoes
I don't pay no union dues
(Later)
I know every avenue on every train
I'm a man of means, by no means
King of the road
Foot box car, midnight train
Destination, banger, queen
Old worn out Sunday shoes
I don't pay no union dues
(Later)
I know every avenue on every train
Original Lyrics:
Buys a eight by 12 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 suit and shoes
I don't pay no union dues
(Later)
I know every engineer on every train
I'm a man of means, by no means
King of the road
Third boxcar, midnight train
Destination: Bangor, Maine
Old worn out suit and shoes
I don't pay no union dues
(Later)
I know every engineer on every train
