Lyrics:

Thoughts in time and out of season
The Hitchhiker
Stood by the side of the road
And leveled his thumb
In the calm calculus of reason
Hi. How you doin'? I just got back into town L.A.
I was out on the desert for awhile
'Riders on the storm'
Yeah. In the middle of it
'Riders on the storm'
Right...
'Into this world we're born'
Hey, listen, man, I really got a problem
'Into this world we're thrown'
When I was out on the desert, ya know
'Like a dog without a bone
An actor out on loan'
I don't know how to tell you
'Riders on the storm'
But, ah, I killed somebody
'There's a killer on the road'
No...
'His brain is squirming like a toad'
It's no big deal, ya know
I don't think anybody will find out about it, but...
' take a long holiday'
Just, ah...
'Let your children play'
This guy gave me a ride, and ah...
'If you give this man a ride'
Started giving me a lot of trouble
'Sweet family will die'
And I just couldn't take it, ya know
'Killer on the road'
And I wasted him
Yeah
