I'm going to Chicago that's the last thing my baby stayed
I'm packing up my bags, I'm gonna leave this town right away
I'm gonna find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world, hitch hike baby
Chicago city that's what the sign on the freeway read
I'm gonna keep on going ‘til I get to that street’s called 6th and Main
I've gotta find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world, hitch hike baby
C'mon hitch hike, hitch hike children
Hitch hike, hitch hike baby
Hitch hike, hitch hike baby
C'mon hitch hike, hitch hike darling
Hitch hike baby, hitch hike children
Hitch hike baby, hitch hike children, hitch hike baby
I'm going to St. Louis but my next stop just might be LA, that's what I say
I got no money in my pocket so I'm going to have to hitch hike all the way
Hitch hike children
I'm gonna find that girl if I have to hitch hike round the world, hitch hike children
C'mon hitch hike, hitch hike children
Hitch hike, hitch hike baby
Hitch hike, hitch hike baby
C'mon hitch hike, hitch hike children
Now c'mon, c'mon hitch hike, hitch hike children
Hitch hike, hitch hike darling
C'mon hitch hike, hitch hike children
Hitch hike, hitch hike, hitch hike baby
