Song: Hitchhiker Joe
Band: The Rugburns
C5: x32013
A7: x02223
intro: G - A7 - C5 - D, G - A7 - C5 - D
[G]Don't pick up [A7]Hitchhiker Joe
[C5]He'll slit your throat and [D]cut off your big toe (I tell you)
[G]He'll make you smile from [A7]ear to ear
Gonna [C5]lock you in the trunk for [D]ninety-nine years
Don't do it now
Bum, bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum, bum bum bum bum
... bum, bum bum bum bum
Bum bum bum bum, bum bum bum bum
[D]I had a cousin, [Em]came from Vermont
[C]Next thing I know that [G]cousin was gone
[D]Truckdriver saw him picking up [Em]Hitchhiker Joe
Now his [C]spleen's on the sidewalk [D]helping flowers grow
My best friend Eddie called from L.A.
Said we'd have dinner later that day
I got the feeling and it's more than a hunch
My poor friend Eddie was that hitchhiker's lunch
(Refrain)
[Em]Hitchhiker Joe ain't no [C]vegetarian
If you [Em]see him on the highway [C]steer clear of him
He got a [F]knife in his sock and a [C]razor up his sleeve
And a [F]chainsaw in his pack and [C]he's gonna make you bleed... yeah yeah!
("Bum" part of Refrain)
My girlfriend Lois called from Tallahasee
She picked up that dude at the Spam factory
That was the last time that I saw her smile
My best advice is, "Don't eat Spam for awhile!"
(Refrain)
