  A5
A thumb goes up, a car goes by

It's nearly 1 a.m. and here am I
           D5   E5           A5
Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride
             D5   E5              A5
Gotta get me home by the morning light

  A5
I got no fare to ride a train

I'm nearly drowin' in the pouring rain
           D5   E5           A5
Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride
             D5   E5            A5
Gotta get me home to my baby's side

D5           E5               A5
Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride
D5           E5               A5
Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride

A5
Long distance call I got today

She sounded lonely so I'm on my way
           D5   E5           A5
Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride
             D5   E5              A5
Gotta get me home, keep her satisfied
