Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

I've been a saviour,
A sideman, a stranger stung
By anger
Burned by law
Feel so scattered
Like nothing really matters anymore,
Put that sign out
On my front door

Hitchin' a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

And I don't know where the years had gone,
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai

I knew a good man
He was a break in clouds,
Hangin'
So low down
It's got me to thinking
It's not like he gave in, he just
Never got that
Second win

Hitchin a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

I don't know where the years have gone,
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie
Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai

Ojai
Ojai

I've been a saviour,
A sideman, a stranger son
Hedge your wager,
'Cause life ain't fair
I been shaken,
Sorely mistaken, this path
I've taken
It's goin' nowhere

Hitchin a ride down the PCH
I got some things I need to say
Callin' out a friend of mine

I don't know where the years have gone,
Just know I'm worse for hangin' on
Maybe it'd be best if I just let things lie

Guess I'm never gonna get back to Ojai
