I came here looking for something |
|
I couldn't find anywhere else |
|
Well I don't wanna be nobody just want a chance to be myself |
|
I've done a thousand miles of thumbin' yes |
|
I've worn blisters on my heels |
|
Tryin' to find me something better on the streets of |
|
Bakersfield |
|
You don't know me but you don't like me you say you careless how |
|
I feel How many of you that sit and judge me ever walked the streets of |
|
Bakerfield [ guitar ] |
|
Spent some time in |
|
San Francisco spent a night there in the can |
|
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell |
|
I took fifteen dollars from that man |
|
I left him my watch and my old house key |
|
I don't want folks thinkin' that |
|
I'd steal |
|
Then I thanked him as he was sleeping and |
|
I headed out for |
|
Bakersfield |
|
You don't know me... |
|
How many of you that sit and judge me ever walked the streets of |
|
Bakerfield |
