Hitch Hike Blues

Travelin' down this lonesome road,
Travelin' down this lonesome road,
Travelin' down this lonesome road,
My old guitar is my load.
.

People always pass me by,
People always pass me by,
People always pass me by
I bow my head and almost cry.

I got them old Hitch Hike Blues,
I got them old Hitch Hike Blues,
I got them old Hitch Hike Blues,
I done wore out my shoes.

I am a thousand miles from home,
I am a thousand miles from home,
I am a thousand miles from home,
I'm out in the western states alone.

I'm a goin' back to Caroline,
I'm a goin' back to Caroline,
I'm a goin' back to Caroline,
To my old home I left behind.

Standin' by the old roadside,
Standin' by the old roadside,
Standin' by the old roadside,
A tryin' my best to catch a ride.
