Caught a ride into South Dakota, |
|
With two girls in a light blue Desoto, |
|
You know one's name was Jane, |
|
The other was plain, |
|
But they both had racing motors. |
|
Next I caught a ride with a gamblers wife, |
|
She had a brand new laid down Rambler. |
|
She stopped outside of town, |
|
Laid the rambler down, |
|
Said she sure could dig it if I rode her, |
|
Said she sure could dig it if I rode her. |
|
Doing my best to get back to you, |
|
Ain't nothing' I'd rather do. |
|
Look for me Sunday, |
|
Gonna be there, honey, |
|
With something special just for you. |
|
Yeah a little something special just for you. |
|
At a truck stop for toothpick and water, |
|
Caught a ride with a fruit picker's daughter, |
|
I drove her through the night, |
|
While the fruit got ripe, |
|
She gave me all I could eat for a quarter. |
|
Next I hopped a train with a hobo woman, |
|
Said she was from Texas too. |
|
The way she did, what she did, |
|
What she did, what she did to me, |
|
Made me think of you. |
|
Yeah honey made me think of you. |
|
Doing my best to get back to you, |
|
Ain't nothing I'd rather do, |
|
Look for me Sunday, |
|
Hope I'll be there, honey |
|
With something special just for you, |
|
Yeah a little something special just for you |
|
Bet all my money on a race horse baby |
|
One they said can't lose. |
|
Now I'm walking down here, |
|
In the freezing rain |
|
Trying to get to you, trying to get to you. |
|
Doing everything I know how to do |
|
I'm down here in the freezing rain, honey |
|
Trying to get to you, |
|
Yeah just trying to get to you. |
|
Doing everything, everything I know how to do |
|
Walking down here in the freezing rain, honey |
|
Trying to get to you, |
|
Yeah trying to get to you. |
|
And I'm walking and I'm talking to myself |
|
And it's raining and I'm freezing me to death |
|
Thinking 'bout you babe |

Thinking 'bout you babe |
