The Coasters

The Coasters are an American rhythm and blues/rock and roll vocal group that had a string of hits in the late 1950s. Beginning with "Searchin'" and "Young Blood," their most memorable songs were written by the songwriting and producing team of Leiber and Stoller. Although the Coasters originated outside of mainstream doo wop, their records were so frequently imitated that they became an important part of the doo wop legacy through the 1960s. more »

I had myself a day job
Pumpin' gasoline
A dollar a day is all they pay
And I just can't make that scene
That's why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
If I could find some money
Id straighten out right quick
But every time I get a dime
I spend it on some chick
That's why Im thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
That's why Im thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
I'm walking down the highway
Sweating like salt pork
I'm putting down this country town
Cause my souls up in New York
That's why I'm thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
Thumbin' a ride
On the road
