Was ridin' along side the highway
Rollin' up the countryside
Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave
What you burn in your crazy mind?
Saw a slight distraction
Standin' by the road
She was smilin' there, yellow in her hair
"Do you wanna," I was thinkin', "would you care?"

Sweet hitch-a-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-a-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?

Cruisin' on thru the junction
I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound
Noticin' peculiar function
I ain't no roller coaster; show me down
I turned away to see her
Whoa, she caught my eye
But I was rollin' down, movin' too fast
"Do you wanna," she was thinkin', "can it last?"

Sweet hitch-a-hiker
We could make music at the Greasy King
Sweet hitch-a-hiker
Won't you ride on my fast machine?
Was busted up along the highway
I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive
Wond'ring if you're goin' in my way
Won't you give a poor boy a ride?
Here she comes a-ridin'
Lord, she's flyin' high
But she was rollin' down, movin' too fast
"Do you wanna," she was thinkin', "can I last?"
