Lyrics

HITCHIKER

VERSE 1
Been a hitchiker, wayfarer on the road
Knew I liked her, and I guess it showed
Call of the road was too much to bear
Gathered my load, and I left her standing there

CHORUS
No place to be, no place to hide
On the side of the road, waiting on a ride
Everything seems to be passing me by
On the side of the road, waiting for a ride


VERSE 2
Headed north, looking for fun
Left Detroit, I was on the run
Near Marquette, saw the setting sun
Looking for cars and trucks I didn't see one

CHORUS

VERSE 3
If I'd been a sailor upon a mighty ship
Might have been a whaler chasing Moby Dick
Never had a boat, didn't have a car
Didn't have a hope, just a song and my guitar

CHORUS

VERSE 4
Been a few years, since I stuck out my thumb
Lost my direction in a glass of rum
She never had fears, I guess I had some
Lost her affection, I always on the run

CHORUS

VERSE 5
If I used my money, bought me a truck
Stayed with my honey, and changed my luck
Might have tried to lay down some roots
Would've said goodbye to my old dusty boots

LAST CHORUS
No place to be, no place to hide
On the side of the road, waiting on a ride
Everything seems to be passing me by
On the side of the road, waiting for a ride
waiting for a ride
waiting for a ride
