The Hitcher by Then Jerico Lyrics
[Intro]
Who was in that car?
You won’t get far
[Verse 1]
Some people never learn
You’re just a lonely girl
Living in this man's world
You had to take your turn
He picked you up that night
Picked you out in headlights
Turned on the radio
It was a warming glow
[Pre-Chorus]
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Took your life with a six-inch knife
He put the secret into your brain
Moments later you died in pain
See the trucks as they scream on by
Pain reflected in the windshield-wipers
The cold of that moulded steel
If only you'd grabbed the wheel
[Chorus]
All over town
With some kid that you found
You were already dead
I could only protect myself
[Bridge]
Who was in that car?
[Verse 2]
Some people never learn
You hitched around this world
I told you not to go
You wouldn’t listen though
There in the pouring rain
You never felt such pain
And so you chose to ride
But did you choose to die?
[Pre-Chorus]
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Took your life with a six-inch knife
He put the secret into your brain
Moments later you died in pain
See the trucks as they scream on by
Pain reflected in the windshield-wipers
The cold of that moulded steel
If only you'd grabbed the wheel
[Chorus]
All over town
With some kid that you found
You were already dead
I could only protect myself
[Bridge]
One ride, don’t die
Oh, come on, come on, come on, let’s go
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Don’t, don’t die, no!
That's all – pitstop
Who was in that car?
(You won't get far)
You won't get far
(Who was in that car?)
[Pre-Chorus]
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Took your life with a six-inch knife
He put the secret into your brain
Moments later you died in pain
See the trucks as they scream on by
Pain reflected in the windshield-wipers
The cold of that moulded steel
If only you'd grabbed the wheel
[Chorus]
All over town
With some kid that you found
You were already dead
I could only protect myself
[Outro]
One ride, don’t die
Oh, come on, come on, come on, let’s go
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Don’t, don’t die, no!
You were...
Turned on the radio
He picked you up at night
Picked you out in headlights
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Come on, come on, come on, come on
Come on, come on, come on, come on, let's go
Come on, come on, come on, let's go
Hitcher, hitcher, hitcher, hitcher, hitcher, hitcher
On the road, ah
On the road, ah
Come on, come on, come on, let's go
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
He picked you up at night
Picked you out in headlights
Turned on the radio
Turning on a warming glow
Ah, come on, come on, come on, let's go
Come on, come on, come on, let's go
Oh, hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch, don't die
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Who was in that car?
You won’t get far
[Verse 1]
Some people never learn
You’re just a lonely girl
Living in this man's world
You had to take your turn
He picked you up that night
Picked you out in headlights
Turned on the radio

Picked you out in headlights
Turned on the radio
Turning on a warming glow
Ah, come on, come on, come on, let's go
Come on, come on, come on, let's go
Oh, hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch, don't die
Hitcher, hitcher, hitch one ride
