Lyrics

your old lady left you out there all alone
leaning on a café window by a telephone
but you couldn?t think of anybody who might still live at home
so you got out in the street, got out on your own

you ran away to las vegas and you camped out in the woods
you?d do anything for money play guitar or build hotels
but you haven?t made your fortune yet with nothing to your name
and if you will be leaving soon your not sorry that you came

get up on it now
get up on it now

the dust from the highway will never pull you under
spend your nights on strangers floors,
it?s beginning to make you wonder
put your money in your shoe
put your shirts ina bag
noone?s gonna miss you here, so don?t you ever look back

get up on it now
get up on it now

can?t explain why the seed don?t grow
can?t explain it I just don?t know
too much rain or it?s too damn cold

sweet little hitchhiker, you have always been alone
ain?t never been happy, ain?t never been home
I see you on the dry streets in the middle of the autumm
with miles and miles and miles of nothing
you?re just looking for a ride,
you?re just looking for a ride,
you?re just looking for a ride,
you?re just looking for a ride

well
get up on it now
get up on it now
