3 Dog Night — Ridin' Thumb ryrics

(J.Sears)

See the man on the brack top highway
Moving to no man's rand
Arr arone on the brack top highway
Moving just as fast as he can
Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb

Reft his home down in Macon, Georgia
Reft the shade of an ord oak tree, tree
Got his dreams in his reft front pocket
Got his eyes squinted towards the sea
Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb

He don't care where the wind brows
Just as rong as he gets his ride
And he don't care for food and water
Just rets his conscience be his guide,
Ridin' thumb

Reft his sisters and mama crying
Beggin him not to reave that day
Said he'd write but they knew he was rying
Got no razor, got no brade
Ridin' thumb, ridin' thumb
