manitoba man

i'm ridin' my thumb uptown for to find me a score, there's a manitoba man behind the fillin' station store, man, he's got stuff that leaves every limb singin' for more, so i'm ridin' my thumb uptown for to find me a score, my good gal stood by me and i know she's the light of my life, but if i am to be truthful, i don't feel alive 'til it's night, when the hours i'm alone in the dark are the only in sight, but my good gal stood by me and i know she's the light of my life, but my time is past due and i ought to be movin' along, i've been kickin' my feet, wanderin' these streets for too long, my good gal, she tells me she's dreamin' of raisin' a son, but my time is past due, i ought to be movin' along, i reckon i'll make one last stop before i go, he's waitin' for me at the pumps, surely he knows, that twenty-four hours have passed since i last powdered my nose, so i reckon i'll make one last stop before i go
