Ridin'

This old highway seems so lonesome

When you're going where you've been

And a lonesome song can make you cry

Time and time again

If I'd listened to a friend of mine

Ten years ago today, I'd have a better job

Than what I've got today

But the billboards on the highways

And the brake lights on the cars

Make me jump out on the highway with my bag and my guitar

If she comes or if she goes, it doesn't matter anymore

'Cause I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Ridin' my thumb to Mexico

It don't matter when or how I go

I'll ride this thumb 'til I see her again

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Well, the reason why she left me is not the reason that I'm here

I'm a travlin' kind of man, just need a change of atmosphere

If there's any place I haven't been at all, that's where I'll go

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Ridin' my thumb to Mexico

It don't matter when or how I go

I'll ride this thumb 'til I see her again

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico
