King of the Road is a song written by country singer Roger Miller, who first recorded it in November 1964. The lyrics tell of the day-to-day life of a vagabond hobo who, despite being poor (a man of means by no means), revels in his freedom, describing himself humorously and cynically as the king of the road. This Brass Quintet arrangement is written in a Country Swing Style and features the trombone and jazzy brass ensemble playing. It also includes optional Acoustic Bass and Drum Set parts. The MP3 sample starts in measure 5.

Performance time is approx. 2 minutes 30 seconds.
