Hitch-Hiker - Roger Miller

Hitch hiker!

Hitch hiker!

Like a restless tiger you can’t stand still

And you never will

Spoken:

Here I stand and the cars go by

Some of them honk — and some just wave Hi

It seems like life and the cars both just pass me by

Hitch Hiker

No special place to be going

I just go whichever way the winds blowin'

You know it’s hot today

I’d kinda like to go where it’s snowin'

Ahh I dunno maybe i’ll just stay here

Where the green grass is growin'

Here comes another car.

I wonder

Is he slowing down

Hitch Hiker

Hitch hiker!

Hitch hiker!

Like a restless tiger you can’t stand still

And you never will

I guess boys all dream and so did I

My hands once reached to touch the sky

Is this the sky that I reached for

Just the dust of the road and nothin' more

Here comes another car

Hitch Hiker

Hitch hiker!

Hitch hiker!

Like a restless tiger you can’t stand still

And you never will
