Why won't nobody give me ride
Yeh here in salem
I was stuck on the side of the road
Thirteen hours, really nowhere to go
Yessir man and it's cold
I could lay down here and freeze and die
Really won't even care, or even know
Yes, there was girl here one time
Yeh, but she long gone and down the road, down the road.
Yessir man and it's cold
Think i'm gonna warm my fingers up right here
I could lay down here and freeze and die
Really won't even care, or even know
There was girl here one time
But i treated her so unkind
Yeh, she long gone and down the road, down the road.
Yessir man, yessir man it's cold
Yessir man, yessir man it's cold
Yessir man, yessir man it's cold
Yessir man, yessir man, lord it's cold
