hitchhike through america


Gonna hitch-hike through America
And the sun is gonna shine all the day
Gonna be there with my baby
Warmin’ to the things that I say

Gonna hitch hike through America
And no one’s gonna stand in my way
Gonna see it with my baby
And everything will be A.O.K

chorus

Where the party life goes on
Where the starry nights are shone
And the land goes on and on
You’ll find me there.

Gonna hitch hike through America..... I’m telling you
From New York town to Florida bay
With my guitar and my baby
Travellin’ down some open freeway

Now how I’d love to see America...You know that it’s
A dream that I’ll achieve come what may
I can see it in a vision
Us cruising down the road to L.A

chorus’s 1@2

Where the party life goes on
Where the starry nights are shone
And the land goes on and on
You’ll find me there

Where the road runs straight and true
Where the rolling sky’s so blue
And there’s a life for me and you
You’ll find me there

Hitch-hike through America
Yeah yeah yeah
I like it, I like it, I like it

Repeat Chorus 1@2

JON BATE. 1999
