Hitchhiker - Neil Young (尼尔·杨)[00:00:00]
Written by:Daniel Lanois[00:00:00]
When I was a hitchhiker on the road[00:00:25]
I had to count on you[00:00:29]
But you needed me to ease the load[00:00:32]
And for conversation too[00:00:35]
Or did you just drive on through[00:00:39]
You didn't see me in Toronto[00:00:52]
When I first tried out some hash[00:00:55]
Smoked some then and I'll do it again[00:00:59]
But I didn't have the cash[00:01:02]
I didn't have the cash[00:01:05]
Then I tried amphetamines[00:01:18]
And my head was in a glass[00:01:21]
Taped underneath the speedometer wires[00:01:25]
Of my 48 Buick dash[00:01:28]
But I knew that wouldn't last[00:01:31]
Then came California[00:01:47]
Where I first saw open water[00:01:50]
In the land of opportunity[00:01:54]
I knew I was getting hotter[00:01:58]
I knew I was getting hotter[00:02:01]
But the neon lights[00:02:10]
And the endless nights[00:02:11]
They took me by surprise[00:02:13]
The doctor gave me Valium[00:02:17]
But I still couldn't close my eyes[00:02:20]
I still couldn't close my eyes[00:02:24]
Then came paranoia[00:02:36]
And it ran away with me[00:02:39]
I would not sign my autograph[00:02:43]
Or appear on TV[00:02:46]
Or see or be seen[00:02:50]
Living in the country[00:03:02]
Look good to me[00:03:05]
Smoking grass while the summer pasts[00:03:09]
In the real organic sea[00:03:12]
Where everything was green[00:03:15]
Then we had a kid and we split apart[00:03:24]
I was living on the road[00:03:27]
A little coc*ine went a long long way[00:03:31]
To ease that different load[00:03:34]
But my head did explode[00:03:38]
My head did explode[00:03:42]
I wish I was an Aztec[00:03:53]
Or a runner in Peru[00:03:56]
I would build such beautiful buildings[00:03:59]
To house the chosen few[00:04:03]
Like an Inca from Peru[00:04:06]
Now my days are coming on[00:04:22]
Like friends and enemies[00:04:25]
I tried to leave my past behind[00:04:29]
But its catching up with me[00:04:33]
Its catching up with me[00:04:36]
I don't know how I am standing here[00:04:45]
Leaving my life[00:04:48]
I thankful for my children[00:04:53]
And my faithful wife[00:04:56]
