Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm goin' to Chicago, that's the last place my baby strayed
(Hitch hike)
Yeah, hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 2]
I'm packin' up my bags, gonna leave this old town right away
(Hitch hike)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 3]
I've got to find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world
(Hitch hike) Hitch hike
[Verse 4]
Hmm, Chicago city limits
That's what the sign on the highway read
(Hitch hike)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 5]
I'm gonna keep movin'
Till I get to that street corner, sixth and third
(Sixth and third, hitch hike, baby) Hitch hike, yeah
I've got to find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world
(Hitch hike)
Hitch hike, baby
[Verse 6]
Come on, children, hitch hike
(Hitch hike)
Yeah, hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 7]
It's all right (Hitch hike)
Hitch hike, children (Hitch hike, children)
[Verse 8]
Hitch hike (Hitch hike)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, yeah)
Yeah, hitch hike (Hitch hike)
Hitch hike, children
[Verse 9]
(Hitch hike, baby)
(Hitch hike, children)
(Hitch hike, baby)
(Hitch hike, children)
(Hitch hike, baby)
(Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 10]
I'm goin' to Saint Louis, but my next stop a-just me be LA
(Hitch hike)
Now, what'd I say? (LA)
[Verse 11]
Got no money in my pocket
So I'm gonna have to hitch hike all the way (All the way)
Yeah (Hitch hike, baby)
[Verse 12]
I've got to find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world
(Hitch hike)
And what I'd say
[Verse 13]
Come on, and hitch hike
(Hitch hike, baby)
Come, hitch hike, children
(Hitch hike, children)
[Verse 14]
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
Now, hitch hike, baby
(Hitch hike, children)
[Verse 15]
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
Hitch hike, baby (Hitch hike, baby)
Now, hitch hike (Hitch hike)
Do the hitch hike
[Verse 16]
Come on, hitch hike
(Hitch hike, baby)
Now, hitch hike, children
(Hitch hike, children)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, uh)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, baby)
Hitch hike (Hitch hike, children)
Hitch hike, children (Hitch hike)
