King of the Road


"King of the Road" is a song written and originally recorded in November 1964 by country singer Roger Miller. The lyrics tell of the day-to-day life of a vagabond hobo who, despite being poor, revels in his freedom, describing himself humorously as the "king of the road" I added some photos of some homeless camps in Wenatchee- they choose this life style even though it is cold out. They are not homeless, just choose to live differently than some and do not want the rules of shelters or to pay taxes. Most are good people, just leave a bit of trash behind and just want to be left alone. Some probably use or tried drugs and drinking- a costly move for those.
