Well I thumbed a ride to Arkansas
You wouldn’t believe what I done see
Six dozen amish riding in a limousine
Smoking pot and kerosene
Oh what a trip it’s been
Well I crossed the border into Mexico
I found a girl who loved me so it goes
I woke up and my wallet was gone
She loved me once but not for long
Oh what a trip it’s been
Yeah the road’s a mighty fine place to forget where you once came from
You can lie you can steal, negotiate a deal
On the crossroads of highways, alley cats and runaways
I got one question for you
Are you going my way?
I caught a train and I went off the tracks
When you’re this far gone there ain’t no turning back
Off those rocky rails I went, bottles’ gone money’s spent
Oh what a trip it’s been
Well I met a girl from Texas with a T
She really made a mess out of me
She took this here guitar, threw it halfway across the yard
Oh what a trip it’s been
Yeah the road’s a mighty fine place to forget where you once came from
You can lie you can steal, negotiate a deal
On the crossroads of highways, alley cats and runaways
I got one question for you
Are you going my way?
