A thumb goes up, a car goes by

It's nearly 1 a.m. and here am I

Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride

Gotta get me home by the morning light



I got no fare to ride a train

I'm nearly drowin' in the pouring rain

Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride

Gotta get me home to my baby's side



Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride

Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride



Long distance call I got today

She sounded lonely so I'm on my way

Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride

Gotta get me home, keep her satisfied



Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride

Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride



A thumb goes up, a car goes by

Oh, won't somebody stop and help a guy?

Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride

Been away too long from my baby's side



Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride

Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride



Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride

Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride



Ride, ride

Ride, ride

Ride, ride

Ride, ride

FADE

Ride, ride
