From the recording Mama Said No. 2
Lyrics
Hey mister can I catch I ride? / I wanna go with you tonightI know I'm not on your list / but that'll be quite all right / I promise that I won't be a botherI won't even make a sound / it's not important where I've been / but only where I'm boundI can sit in the back of the bus / or sit in the aisle / anywhere is fine / I'll be still for every mileYou can put me on top / high off the ground / I'll call out the name of every townMama said: tuck in your shirt and sit up tall / sit up front where you belongYou're just as good as all the rest / never settle for second best I'll wash the bus / I'll scrub the tires / I'll clean the windows / you'll see for milesI'll do whatever you want / and I won't make a fuss / if you just let me join this exodusMama said: tuck in your shirt and sit up tall / sit up front where you belongYou're just as good as all the rest / you deserve the very best You say hitchhike / but I say ride / you say deadbeat / but I have prideYou say I won't / but I say I can / you say beat it / but I say think againIn fact I have a better idea / why don't you just step aside / I'll drive
