Thumbin’ a Ride Songtext
I had myself a day job
Pumpin′ gasoline
A dollar a day is all they pay
And I just can't make that scene
That′s why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
If I could find some money
I'd straighten out right quick
But every time I get a dime
I spend it on some chick
That′s why I'm thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
That's why I'm thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
I′m walking down the highway
Sweating like salt pork
I'm putting down this country town
′Cause my soul's up in New York
That′s why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
Pumpin′ gasoline
A dollar a day is all they pay
And I just can't make that scene
That′s why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
If I could find some money
I'd straighten out right quick
But every time I get a dime
I spend it on some chick
That′s why I'm thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
That's why I'm thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
I′m walking down the highway
Sweating like salt pork
I'm putting down this country town
′Cause my soul's up in New York
That′s why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
Thumbin′ a ride
On the road
