Arms like a scarecrow Hitchin' for a ride Skin like a leather tomb Eyes like kilns in the rivers of dry Dust under a paper moon It runs hot in the summer in the Piedmont Plains Meet the devil in the morning sun And you take his heat A hundred hours in the week Til he lets you see the autumn come
It's enough to drive a young man insane Make a woman wanna run away I met Jack McKent He was a handsome man Was my ticket to a better place
Where do we go when the sun stays high? Where do we go when we close our eyes? Where do we go when we feel this tide? Where do we go? Well we hitch a ride
Well Jack and me we never left the heat Got pregnant in the early spring But when Jack got mean He'd raise his hand to me And I never could predict his swing And on the hottest night In the full moon light He stole the one good thing we'd made And like a dandelion with the feather's flyin' The wind pulled my heart away
When do you know to put a sick dog down? Where do you go when you cross that line? Ain't no secrets in a southern town Where do we go?
There are children's bodies buried in the grave No songs to carry all of my love And I'll run from the sin, and the love, and the devil And judgement from the Lord above
And I'll leave my fate in the hands of strangers Every driver on the great highway I'm a flair to the night A black widow spider Another orphan on the interstate
Where do we go when the sun stays high? Where do we go when we close our eyes? Where do we go when we feel this tide? Where do we go? Well we hitch a ride!
We're all running from something (Hitch a ride, go, go hitch a ride) Leaving someone behind (Hitch a ride, go, go hitch a ride) Always another car coming (Hitch a ride, go, go hitch a ride) When we hitch a ride (Hitch a ride, go, go hitch a ride) We're all picking up strangers (Hitch a ride, go, go hitch a ride) Just trust the look in their eye We don't know we're in danger When we hitch a ride (Hitch a ride, go, go)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
