Ridin' My Thumb to Mexico (Re-Recorded)

This old highway seems so lonesome

When you're going where you've been

And a lonesome song can make you cry

Time and time again

By listenin' to a friend of mine

Ten years ago today

I'd have a better job

Than what I've got today

But the billboards on the highway

And the brake lights on the cars

Make me jump out on the highway

With my bag and my guitar

If she comes or if she goes

It doesn't matter anymore

Cause I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Ridin' my thumb to Mexico

It don't matter when or how I go

I'll ride this thumb 'til I see her again

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Well, the reason why she left me's

Not the reason that I'm here

I'm a travelin' kind of man

Just need a change of atmosphere

If there's any place I haven't been

At all that's where I'll go

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico

Ridin' my thumb to Mexico

It don't matter when or how I go

I'll ride this thumb 'til I see her again

So I'm ridin' my thumb to Mexico
