Well I left my home out on the great High Plains | |
Headed for some new terrain | |
Standin' on the highway with my coffe cup | |
A' Wonderin' who was gonna pick me up | |
I had my hopes up high--I never thought that I | |
Would ever wonder why I ever said good-by | |
I had my hopes up high | |
Well, the first ride I got was in a dynamite truck | |
The driver kept a' tellin' me his bad luck | |
As we swerved around the curves I began to shout | |
Hey-ey mister would you let me out | |
I had my hopes up high--I never though that I | |
Would ever wonder why I ever said good-by | |
I had my hopes up high | |
And the next ride I got was with a man in trouble | |
The beard on his face was all in a stubble | |
Runnin' from the law he was goin' ninety-nine, | |
I said hey-ey mister you're out of your mind | |
I had my hopes up high--I never thought that I | |
Would ever wonder why I ever said good-by | |
I had my hopes up high | |
Oh, the next ride I got was with a preacher man | |
Told me that the wicked would be buried in sand | |
Don't know why I did it but I lost control | |
Hey-ey Papa would you save my soul | |
I had my hopes up high--I never thought that I | |
Would ever wonder why I ever said good-by | |
I had my hopes up high | |
And I finally got a ride on a carnival train | |
Nearly blew away in a hurricane | |
I got to thinkin' bout that preacher down in Louisianne | |
Sittin' on the Delta Siftin' sand | |
I had my hopes up high--I never thought that I | |
Would ever wonder why I ever said good-by | |
I had my hopes up high | |
From the First, Live Shots, Mountain Stage, Best Of Vol.1, Whatever happend to Maria Album' s. |
