Thumbin' A Ride |
I had myself a day job |
Pumpin' gasoline |
A dollar a day is all they pay |
And I just can’t make that scene |
That’s why I’m thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
On the road |
If I could find some money |
I’d straighten out right quick |
But every time I get a dime |
I spend it on some chick |
That’s why I’m thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
On the road |
That’s why I’m thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
On the road |
I’m walking down the highway |
Sweating like salt pork |
I’m putting down this country town |
'Cause my soul’s up in New York |
That’s why I’m thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
Thumbin' a ride |
On the road |
