Straylin Street Lyrics - Singles - Droge Pete

When I was younger I was torn and frayed and lonely 

Knew I had to move... Gotta hit the road 

Someday I would move and hide out where no one would ever catch me 

'cause those'r bound to move gotta hit the road 

Called for the hobo but he was no where to be found 

He must be lost down on Straylin Street. 

Spent all my time chasing no where getting higher 

Found out I was no where and it hit me hard 

Thought I'd jump a train and head out for Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 

But the brakeman passed me by 'cause he was blind 

Called for the brakeman but he was no where to be found 

He must be lost down on Straylin Street. 

So can't you help, help, help a man like me 

I said can't you help, help, help a man like me 

Or are you lost down on Straylin Street? 

I hit the road with my bag full of my laundry 

I carried my book in my right hand 

Kerouac got his words that reach for the young and the ramble hearted 

'cause those'r bound to move gotta hit the road 

Called for the writer but he was no where to be found 

He must be lost down on Straylin Street...
