I'm stuck on the L.A. freeway,
 Got rain water in my boots,
 My thumbs done froze, can't feel my toes,
 I feel a little destitute.
 Wheels throwing water all over my axe
 And Mr. Jones won't lend me a hand.
 [bad word] two cats in a Cadillac
 And they say, "Won't you hop in, man ?"

 "We'd like to help you make your trip."

 He said, "We can't leave him out in the rain,
 He just might freeze and die,
 So why not put him on a plane
 And send him home in the sky ?"

 Laid twenty dollars in my hand.

 Flying back home again.
 And I went flying high
