Hitch

For 40 days and for 40 nights
I've been asleep in the pouring rain
Sometimes it takes something cold as ice
To get you back on your feet again
And I put too much faith in something I never believed in
Thrown it all away but it keeps coming back
Never enough to quit meet in the middle
I rely on my friends to help me pick up the slack
So won't you fly, fly across that endless skyway
If you got the room can I please hitch a ride
If you're gonna run you're welcome to run my way
I'm just looking for a drink and a warm place to hide
It's been aces backed with 8s for so long I can't remember
Exactly what it means to break down and cry
If I can only make it through September
I might lose this lean and hungry look shining in my eyes
But late last night i heard a whippoorwill singing
She reminds me of a place that I left far behind
And early this morning I thought I heard bells ringing
Takes me back to a forgotten time
So won't you fly, fly across that endless skyway
If you got the room can I please hitch a ride
If you're gonna run you're welcome to run my way
I'm just looking for a drink and a warm place to hide
For 40 days and for 40 nights
I only winded up getting wet
Sometimes I think I better take my good friend's advice
And put out these Goddamn cigarettes
Or maybe blown up my TV set
But I don't think that I'm quite ready yet
So won't you fly, fly across that endless skyway
If you got the room can I please hitch a ride
If you're gonna run you're welcome to run my way
I'm just looking for a drink and a warm place to hide
So won't you fly, fly across that endless skyway
If you got the room can I please hitch a ride
If you're gonna run you're welcome to run my way
I'm just looking for a drink and a warm place to hide
