Jim Morrison - An American Prayer [1969] - The Hitchhiker

Posted by MojosBeads on January 13, 2013 at 7:05 AM

Thoughts in time and out of season

The Hitchhiker stood by the side of the road

And leveled his thumb

In the calm calculus of reason

 

Hi, how you doing?

I just got back into town

L.A.

I was out on the desert for awhile

Yeah, um, in the middle of it

Right

Hey listen man I really got a problem

Well, uh

When I was out on the desert, ya know

I don't know how to tell you

but, ah, I killed somebody

No

It's no big deal ya know

I don't think anybody will find out about it, but

Just uh, I don't know

This guy gave me a ride and uh

Started giving me a lot of trouble

And I just, couldn't take it ya know

And I wasted him
