Well I left my home out on the great high plains[00:00:08]

Headed for some new terrain[00:00:13]

Standin' on the highway with my coffe cup[00:00:16]

A wonderin' who was gonna pick me up[00:00:19]

I had my hopes up high I never thought that I[00:00:22]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:00:30]

I had my hopes up high[00:00:34]

Well the first ride I got was in a dynamite truck[00:00:38]

The driver kept a tellin' me his bad luck[00:00:42]

As we swerved around the curves I began to shout[00:00:45]

Hey ey mister would you let me out[00:00:49]

I had my hopes up high I never though that I[00:00:52]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:01:00]

I had my hopes up high[00:01:04]

And the next ride I got was with a man in trouble[00:01:38]

The beard on his face was all in a stubble[00:01:41]

Runnin' from the law he was goin' ninety nine[00:01:45]

I said hey ey mister you're out of your mind[00:01:48]

I had my hopes up high I never thought that I[00:01:52]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:02:00]

I had my hopes up high[00:02:03]

Oh the next ride I got was with a preacher man[00:02:08]

Told me that the wicked would be buried in sand[00:02:12]

Don't know why I did it but I lost control[00:02:15]

Hey ey papa would you save my soul[00:02:19]

I had my hopes up high I never thought that I[00:02:22]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:02:30]

I had my hopes up high[00:02:33]

And I finally got a ride on a carnival train[00:02:46]

Nearly blew away in a hurricane[00:02:50]

I got to thinkin' bout that preacher down in Louisiana[00:02:53]

Sittin' on the delta siftin' sand[00:02:57]

I had my hopes up high I never thought that I[00:03:00]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:03:08]

I had my hopes up high[00:03:12]

I never thought that I[00:03:16]

Would ever wonder why I ever said good bye[00:03:18]

I had my hopes up high[00:03:21]
