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
