Dwight Yoakam

Dwight Yoakam - Streets Of Bakersfield lyrics

rate me

[ with Buck Owens ]

I came here looking for something I couldn't find anywhere else

Hey I'm not tryin' to be nobody just want a chance to be myself

I've spent a thousand miles of thumbin' yes I've worn blisters on my heels

Tryin' to find me something better here on the streets of Bakersfield

Hey you don't know me but you don't like me say you careless how I feel

How many of you that sit and judge me ever walked the streets of Bakerfield

[ guitar - accordion ]

Spent some time in San Francisco I spent a night there in the can

They threw this drunk man in my jail cell I took fifteen dollars from that man

Left him my watch and my house key don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal

Then I thanked him as he was leavng and I headed out for Bakersfield

Hey you don't know me...

Hey you don't know me...

How many of you that sit and judge me ever walked the streets of Bakerfield
