infamous stringdusters – the hitchhiker lyrics

i heard you favored another
and to me it came as no surprise
i had all i can take of feeling this way
knowing i was gone beyond goodbye
i hear a voice in the distance
crying like a sorrowful ghost
there’s a dark sky moving behind me
and i’m riding my thumb by the road

or take me to the coast of california
there’s a cold wind blowing here at home
anywhere your restless wheels are rolling
is better off than staying here alone
so i paid a price for the learning
measured in the p-ssing of time
money can’t buy back the years i’ve lost
water that never turned to wine
