Hitchhiker Lyrics

I had to count on you

But you needed me to ease the load

And for conversation too

Or did you just drive on through.

You didn't see me in Toronto

When I first tried out some hash

Smoked some then and I'll do it again

If I only had some cash

Only had some cash.

Then I tried amphetamines

And my head was in a glass

Taped underneath the speedometer wires

Of my '48 Buick's dash.

But I knew that wouldn't last.

Then came California

Where I first saw open water

In the land of opportunity

I knew I was getting hotter

I knew I was getting hotter.

But the neon lights

And the endless nights

The neon lights

And the endless nights

The neon lights

And the endless nights

The neon lights

And the endless nights

They took me by surprise

The doctor gave me valium

But I still couldn't close my eyes

I still couldn't close my eyes.

Then came paranoia

And it ran away with me

I couldn't sign my autograph

Or appear on TV

Or see or be seen

See or be seen

Or see or be seen.

Living in the country

Sounded good to me

Smoking grass while the summer lasts

In the real organic sea

Where everything was green

Everything was green.

Then we had a kid and we split apart

I was living on the road

A little cocaine went a long long way

To ease that different load

But my head did explode

My head did explode.

I wish I was an Aztec

Or a runner in Peru

I would build such beautiful buildings

To house the chosen few

Like an Inca from Peru.

When I was a hitchhiker on the road

I had to count on you

But you needed me to ease the load

And for conversation too

Or did you just drive on

Did you just drive on

Did you just drive on through.

Or did you just drive on

Did you just drive on

Did you just drive on through.
