I saw him walking somewhere in Utah With a cardboard sign that read promised land No one was stopping cause that'd be crazy To help a weary stranger even if you can
Now I'll admit, I hesitated I felt the fear creep up inside as I slowed down But his feet were broken, bruised up and bloody With a hundred miles between us and the next town
When I pulled over, He came running Hoping my four-wheeled ship could sail him cross the land I said a silent prayer, right then and there He said, "God bless you ma'am Hello, my name is Dan"
Oh Daniel, the hitchhiker Ain't no salvation where you come from Tell me your story and I will listen Cause were all trying to find a place to belong
He said I'm tired of building castles Just to have them ripped apart by a jealous hand So now I'm building fires from the book of ages To keep my lonely soul from freezing in the sand
Oh Daniel, the hitchhiker Ain't no salvation where you come from Tell me your story and I will listen Cause were all trying to find a place to belong
He said, "They chase me out, lock me up But they never take me in The doors are always closed though the sign it says open Man, ain't that something?"
Just east of Portland, He said, "Here's fine I can't thank you enough for being kind" And as I drove away I wished that I'da thought to say That he'd always have a place in my mind
Oh Daniel, the hitchhiker Ain't no salvation where you come from Tell me your story and I will listen Cause were all trying to find a place to belong We're all trying to find a place to belong Yeah, I'm still trying to find my place To belongTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
