Hitchin’ A Ride
Vanity Fair

Intro: C

             C
A thumb goes up, a car goes by. It’s nearly one a.m. and here am I, 
           F    G           C                  F    G              C
hitchin’ a ride, hitchin’ a ride, gotta get me home by the morning light.

I got no fare to ride a train, I’m nearly drownin’ in the pourin’ rain.
Hitchin’ a ride, hitchin’ a ride, gotta get me home to my baby’s side.

Chorus:
F     G                      C
Ride, ride, ride, hitchin’ a ride.
F     G                      C
Ride, ride, ride, hitchin’ a ride.

Long distance call I got today, she sounded lonely so I’m on my way.
Hitchin’ a ride, hitchin’ a ride, gotta get me home keep her satisfied.

Instrumental break

Repeat chorus

A thumb goes up, a car goes by, oh won’t somebody stop and help a guy.
Hitchin’ a ride, hitchin’ a ride, been away too long from my baby’s side.
