Sangtekst: The Doors. The Hitchhiker.

:
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 doin'? I just got back into town L.A.

I was out on the desert for awhile


"Riders on the storm"


Yeah. In the middle of it


"Riders on the storm"


Right...


"Into this world we're born"


Hey, listen, man, I really got a problem


"Into this world we're thrown"


When I was out on the desert, ya know


"Like a dog without a bone

An actor out on loan"


I don't know how to tell you


"Riders on the storm"


but, ah, I killed somebody


"There's a killer on the road"


No...


"His brain is squirming like a toad"


It's no big deal, ya know

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


" take a long holiday"


just, ah...


"Let your children play"

this guy gave me a ride, and ah...


"If you give this man a ride"


started giving me a lot of trouble


"Sweet family will die"


and I just couldn't take it, ya know


"Killer on the road"


And I wasted him


Yeah
