Paper Lace - Hitchin' A Ride '74 lyrics

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, hitchin' a ride Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride A thumb goes up, a car goes by It's nearly 1 a.m. and here am I Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride Gotta get me home to my baby's side I got no fare to ride a train I'm nearly drownin' in the pouring rain Hitchin' a ride, hitchin' a ride Been away too long from my baby's side Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' 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, hitchin' a ride Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride Ride, ride, ride, hitchin' a ride
