Shelley Segal - Hitchhiking Song lyrics

[Scat] (x2) Do do, do da Do do, do da da [Verse 1] Why can't we live in a world Where I can hold out my hand And you can take me for a ride And I can do the same for you And we'd both know we're on the same side But I've been sitting on the ground Or maybe it's just my dreads are a little out of shape Cause you've got a pretty nice car With a pretty nice shoe on the gas pedal making an easy escape And when did it start to feel Like everybody's in some kind of a war? Like if you're not of the same age Don't come from the same place or the same race Then what are you even asking for? [Chorus] I hope we find our humanity and I I hope we find our hearts And I hope we find them soon Before it's too late Before everything starts to fall apart And this is my love song, too To everybody on the earth You can treat me like your sister Or you can treat me like dirt And I will still love you For whatever it's worth Hey ya [Scat](x2) Do do, do da Do do, do da da [Verse 2] What makes us think that we own this world? I can come to your country So why can't you come to mine? Let's tear down these borders, we've given so much power To what's actually just an imaginary line We try to keep our gates closed Cause we know that we have more But I've lost count of how many people with less Have given me half of their food and let me sleep on their floor And oh, I have hope That deep down we are willing to share But we've spent so many years Teaching ourselves how to look away That maybe we're forgotten how to care [Scat] (x4) Do do, do da Do do, do da da [Chorus] And I hope we find our humanity and I I hope we find our hearts I hope we find them soon Before it's too late Before everything starts to fall apart And this is my love song To everybody on the earth You can treat me like your sister Or you can treat me like dirt And I will still love you For whatever it's worth
