Straylin Street |
When I was younger I was torn and frayed and lonely |
Knew I had to move Gotta hit the road |
Someday I would move and hide out where no one would |
Ever catch me |
Cuz those’r bound to move gotta hit the road |
Called for the hobo but he was no where to be found |
He must be lost down on Straylin Street |
Spent all my time chasing no where getting higher |
Found out I was no where and it hit me hard |
Thought I’d jump a train and head out for Pittsburgh |
Pennsylvania |
But the brakeman passed me by cuz he was blind |
Called for the brakeman but he was no where to be found |
He must be lost down on Straylin Street |
So can’t you help, help, help a man like me |
I said can’t you help, help, help a man like me |
Or are you lost down on Straylin Street |
I hit the road with my bag full of my laundry |
I carried my book in my right hand |
Kerouac got his words that reach |
For the young and the ramble hearted |
Cuz those’r bound to move gotta hit the road |
Called for the writer but he was no where to be found |
He must be lost down on Straylin Street |
