I've been down so long 
I think I'm gon' lose my mind 
I've been down so long 
I ask my friends 
Say, "I'm gonna lose my mind" 
Since you been gone 
Walkin' the street, an' cryin' 

I'm gonna thumb me a ride 
Right down the road I go 
I'm gonna thumb me a ride 
Right down the road I  go
She treat me so mean 
Can't stay here no mo' 

(Harmonica & [bad word]  

I'm gonna thumb me a ride 
Back down the road I'll go 
I'm gonna thumb me a ride 
Back down the road I'll go 
Treat me so evil 
Can't stay here no mo' 

After awhile 
You gon' want me like I want you 
After a while 
You gonna want me like I want you 
I'm gon' keep on walkin' 
I ain't got 'nuff for you to do. 

(Harmonica & [bad word] to end)
