Hitchin' A Ride Lyrics

Hey mister, where you headed?
Are you in a hurry?
I need a lift to happy hour say oh no
Do you brake for distilled spirits?
I need a break as well
The well that inebriates the guilt
One, two
One, two, three, four

Cold turkey's getting stale
Tonight I'm eating crow
Fermented salmonella poison oak no
There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And I'm dehydrated
My tongue is swelling up
I say one, two
One, two, three, four

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm Hitchin' A Ride

There's a drought at the fountain of youth
And now I'm dehydrated
My tongue is swelling up
I say
Shit

Troubled times
You know I cannot lie
I'm off the wagon and I'm hitchin' a ride

Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)
Hitchin' a ride (don't know where to go)

Hitchin' A Ride

This song is about quitting drinking, then stopping resistance and going back to it ("Cold turkey's getting stale"). When you do it, you've had the urge for a while ("My tongue is swelling up"), and when you start again, the first day you do, you get drunk ("Hitching' a ride").
