| Parody Written by: | Alvin Rhodes |
it was a horrible day
the sun beat down
i had my backpack strapped on
i was fryin'
cars flew by
lord, my feet were stingin'
couldn't walk away
i stopped tryin'
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see
i felt so bad
a pick-up seemed impossible
i lost self control
and cursed those guys
its been three days
the cars are unstoppable
i was gettin' boiled
from sunshine
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see
sun raged on
then my world went dark
my body tumbled down
cause i was dyin'
an ambulance
came on down the road
they passed me up
where i'd been lyin'
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see
the sun beat down
i had my backpack strapped on
i was fryin'
cars flew by
lord, my feet were stingin'
couldn't walk away
i stopped tryin'
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see
i felt so bad
a pick-up seemed impossible
i lost self control
and cursed those guys
its been three days
the cars are unstoppable
i was gettin' boiled
from sunshine
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see
sun raged on
then my world went dark
my body tumbled down
cause i was dyin'
an ambulance
came on down the road
they passed me up
where i'd been lyin'
well, thumbin's out, you see
they never would stop for me
reason why's no mystery
i kinda look like a creep
thumbin's out, you see

thanks IB.....hell, the hair what was got me rides most of the time...most of the drivers thought i was a girl
thanks IB....most times the long hair got me a ride cause people thought i was female...in fact, sometimes even now in restaurants the host will see me and my wife and say "right this way, ladies"...geesh

Hey I liked it very much but I do believe this OS was made in the 80s. Still it gets a 555 vote from me.
thanks clint...you're probably right about the decade....its all a blur to me after the 60s
YO, Clinton W is right, homey...The O to da S was out in nineteen Eighty-Nine, homey! But I'mma give you 555's because you wrote such a pimpin' parody. peace out!
thanks joe
