Well now times got hard |
| [00:17.25] |
And i didn't draw the card i needed |
| [00:19.44] |
So i proceeded to bang it on down the line |
| [00:30.78] |
Hitchhike, turnpike |
| [00:32.40] |
And if you got room won't you let me ride? |
| [00:38.61] |
Just as far as you're going |
| [00:39.27] |
And lord knowing i'll be much obliged. |
| [00:44.79] |
There was a light rain falling |
| [00:46.92] |
I started recalling how lonesome a man can be |
| [00:52.74] |
Feeling a chill when over the hill |
| [00:56.28] |
Came a brand new baby blue cadillac |
| [00:58.74] |
Stop on a dime |
| [01:00.06] |
I threw my guitar in the back and i climbed inside |
| [01:07.02] |
Big blue eyes said "hey boy don't you want a ride?" |
| [01:13.59] |
I said to birmingham, alabama, |
| [01:24.09] |
Or to nashville tennessee will do just fine with me. |
| [01:27.42] |
Don't you know what i mean? |
| [01:31.41] |
I'm coming from new orleans. |
| [01:32.52]Now hey, [na na.] |
|
| [01:38.25] |
Mama won't you let me ride? |
| [02:48.45] |
Well now black fur coat, diamond ring |
| [02:49.95] |
Shining like something i ain't ever seen. |
| [02:52.56] |
My old guitar and a roadside bar. |
| [02:57.21] |
Walked in the door looking like a movie queen |
| [03:02.10] |
There was a honky tonk jukebox, hardwood floor |
| [03:06.33] |
She said "i ain't ever seen nothing like this before." |
| [03:08.67] |
I said, "that's all right, mama won't you let me ride?" |
| [03:12.90] |
On down to birmingham, alabama, |
| [03:26.79] |
Or to nashville tennessee wiil do fine with me. |
| [03:33.51] |
Don't you know what i mean? |
| [03:37.17] |
I'm coming from new orleans. |
| [03:37.98]Now hey, [na na.] |
|
| [03:44.19] |
Mama won't you let me ride? |
