Now I was driving down A West Texas highway I saw a hitchhiker And his thumb was pointing my way He didn't look suspicious And he didn't look any too clean I put on my brakes And I opened my door I could tell he was a bum By the muddy boot he wore He said I'm going down to Haskell Got a woman down in Abilene He said East Texas Is where I come from I was working a rodeo out there And it sure got humdrum So I'm just traveling around A whole lot of Texas I've seen I'm mighty glad You were going my way In your brand new clothes there And your great big Chevrolet I'm going down to Haskell Got a woman down in Abilene Well he was grinning like a possum And a mighty happy rascal And he waved good-bye When I let him out in Haskell And that's about the last Of that old road tramp I ever did see But I'm still wishing To this very day That he had my clothes And my big Chevrolet And it was me going to Haskell With a woman down in Abilene
