Sweet Hitch-Hiker

Creedence Clearwater Revival (CCR)

Transposer:

Was Ridin' along side the highway, rollin' up the country side. Thinkin' I'm the devil's heatwave, what you burn in your crazy mind? Saw a slight distraction standin' by the road; She was smilin' there, yellow in her hair; Do you wanna, I was thinkin', would you care. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, We could make music at the Greasy King. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, Won't you ride on my fast machine? Cruisin' on thru the junction, I'm flyin' 'bout the speed of sound, Noticin' peculiar function, I ain't no roller coaster show me down. I turned away to see her, Woah! she caught my eye, But I was rollin' down, movin' too fast; Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can it last. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, We could make music at the Greasy King. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, Won't you ride on my fast machine? Was busted up along the highway, I'm the saddest ridin' fool alive. Wond'ring if you're goin' in my way, won't you give a poor boy a ride? Here she comes a ridin', Lord, She's flyin' high. But she was rollin' down, movin' too fast; Do you wanna, She was thinkin' can I last. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, We could make music at the Greasy King. Sweet Hitch-a-Hiker, Won't you ride on my fast machine? (x3)

La chanson raconte l'histoire d'un voyageur qui roule le long de la route, laissant ses pensées vagabonder. En chemin, il aperçoit une jeune femme souriante qui attire son attention, et il se demande si elle souhaiterait l'accompagner dans sa voiture rapide. Au fil de son errance, il exprime le désir de partager des moments musicaux avec elle, tout en se sentant un peu perdu et nostalgique lorsqu'il réalise qu'il ne peut pas ralentir et qu'il traverse des épreuves. Le contexte évoqué ici illustre un moment de liberté et d'évasion sur la route, tout en mettant en lumière le désir de connexion humaine. C'est un tableau de la vie sur la route, entre l'espoir d'une rencontre et le sentiment de solitude qui accompagne souvent le voyage.
