hitchin' hitchin' a ride
i ain't got too much time
and i ain't got too much pride
won't somebody pick me up
and drive me to the county line?
walkin' walkin' suits me fine
just singin' to myself and
huggin' that faded white line
but i can't walk all the way
if i'm gonna make it to the gig on time
well strummin' strummin' my guitar
strummin' won't get me very far
still i don't want a car
i'd rather strum my guitar
well the cops don't like it no
they'll say that you're a bum
they'll stick you in a cage if you stick out your thumb
yes hitchin' hitchin' is a crime
but i can't walk all the way
if i'm gonna make it to the gig on time.
