I was rolling along, minding my business
|
I didn't have a worry in this world
|
|
Then on up ahead on that big open road
|
My lights picked up a hitchhiking girl
|
|
Then it all happened with a hi ya hun
|
Can I give you a lift down the road
|
|
Can't take to fast, gotta learn to take it slow
|
I've got on a heavy load
|
|
She said that's alright big boy, take all the time you need
|
And by the way my name is Pearl
|
|
So I pulled in my rig at the next truckstop
|
Just me and my hitchhiking girl
|
|
(Instrumental)
|
|
Then it started again with a gee Ben
|
Oh you are sure big and strong
|
|
She purred like a kitten
|
And I was admitting that this afair just couldn't be wrong
|
|
Then my troubles became double with a friendly embrace
|
Man she really had me in a wherl
|
|
When I woke up a dawn, my wallet was gone
|
And so was my hitchhiking girl
|
|
Then it all ended with a what the
|
Boy she really took me for a ride
|
|
Can't eat today, might as well be on my way
|
Just me and my busted pride
|
|
So I head out one more to broke to be poor
|
But a lesson I've learned from this girl
|
|
Now you can take it from me and the ICC
|
Don't ever trust a hitchhiking girl
|
