I was hitchhiking out of Monteray Calif. in the early 80's and I couldn't get a ride until this fine chick pulls up and, well listen to the song.

I was hitchin’ out to L.A.,
doin’ time in Monterey.
When I met up with a woman,
said she’d take me all the way.
Ass, gas or grass she said,
no one rides for free.

So I flipped her twenty dollars,
and I sat back for a ride.
Her car was doin’ ninety,
when her engine up and died.
She said, hmm sorry honey, this ain’t your lucky day,
I said yeah, no shit.

So I took my twenty dollars,
and started walking to L.A.
When I met up with a woman,
who said I didn’t have to pay.
I said oh no, here I go again,

So I slid into the front seat,
and she took off like a flash.
The girl was drivin’ crazy,
I said slow down, you’re gonna crash.
Look out! Ow!...

So I made it down to L.A.,
man, it was a scary ride.
If I had to do it over,
next time I think I’ll walk.
