Artist: Creedence Clearwater Revival Album: Mardi Gras (1972) Title: Sweet Hitchhiker
Lyrics Sweet HitchhikerWas ridin’ along side the highway, rollin’ up the country side
Thinkin’ I’m the devil’s heatwave, what you burn in your crazy mind
Saw a slight distraction standin’ by the road
She was smilin’ there, yellow in her hair
Do you wanna, I was thinkin’, would you care
Sweet hitchhiker
We could make music at the greasy king
Sweet hitchhiker
Won’t you ride on my fast machine
Cruisin’ on through the junction, I’m flyin’ ’bout the speed of sound
Noticin’ peculiar function, I ain’t no roller coaster show me down
I turned away to see her, whoa! she caught my eye
But I was rollin’ down, movin’ too fast
Do you wanna, she was thinkin’ can it last
Sweet hitchhiker
We could make music at the greasy king
Sweet hitchhiker
Won’t you ride on my fast machine
Was busted up along the highway, I’m the saddest ridin’ fool alive
Wond’ring if you’re goin’ in my way, won’t you give a poor boy a ride
Here she comes a ridin’, lord, she’s flyin’ high
But she was rollin’ down, movin’ too fast
Do you wanna, she was thinkin’ can I last
Sweet hitchhiker
We could make music at the greasy king
Sweet hitchhiker
Won’t you ride on my fast machine |
