Hitchin' A Ride '74

(Album: ...And Other Bits Of Material - 1974)

Back in Louisiana my baby Rosanna
Sitting by the window she waits for me
Here am I in Tucson I've booting my shoes on
Got a lot of highway ahead on me
Breaks my heart to know she's so alone in the world
Want somebody help me get to see my girl?

Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride
Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride

A thumb goes up, a car goes by
It's nearly 1 a.m. and here am I
Hitching a ride, hitching a ride
Gotta get me home to my baby's side

I got no fare to ride a train
I'm nearly drowning in the pouring rain
Hitching a ride, hitching a ride
Been away too long from my baby's side

Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride
Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride

Back in Louisiana my baby Rosanna
Sitting by the window she waits for me
Here am I in Tucson I've booting my shoes on
Got a lot of highway ahead on me
Breaks my heart to know she's so alone in the world
Want somebody help me get to see my girl?

Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride
Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride
Ride, ride, ride, hitching a ride
