Streets of Bakersfield
I came here lookin' for somethin'
I couldn't find anywhere else
Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody
I just wanna chance to be myself
I came here lookin' for somethin'
I couldn't find anywhere else
Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody
I just wanna chance to be myself
I've spent a thousand miles of thumbin'
Yes, I've worn blisters on my heels
Tryin' to find me somethin' better
Here on the streets of Bakersfield
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
Spent some time in San Francisco
I spent a night there in the can
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell
I took 15 dollars from that man
Left him my watch and my old house key
Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal
Then I thanked him as I was leavin'
And I headed out for Bakersfield
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
How many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
I couldn't find anywhere else
Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody
I just wanna chance to be myself
I came here lookin' for somethin'
I couldn't find anywhere else
Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody
I just wanna chance to be myself
I've spent a thousand miles of thumbin'
Yes, I've worn blisters on my heels
Tryin' to find me somethin' better
Here on the streets of Bakersfield
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
Spent some time in San Francisco
I spent a night there in the can
They threw this drunk man in my jail cell
I took 15 dollars from that man
Left him my watch and my old house key
Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal
Then I thanked him as I was leavin'
And I headed out for Bakersfield
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
Hey, you don't know me, but you don't like me
Say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
How many of you that sit and judged me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
