Buck Owens

Streets of Bakersfield [Original Version]
I came here in looking for somethin'I couldn't find anywhere elseWell, I don't want to be nobody, Just want a chance to be myself.I've done a thousand miles of thumbin',Yes, I've worn blisters on my heelsTrying to find me something betterOn the streets of Bakersfield.[Chorus]You don't know me but you don't like me,You say you care less how I feelHow many of you that sit and judge meEver walked the streets of Bakersfield?Spent some time in San Francisco,Spent a night there in the canThey threw this drunk man in my jail cell,I took fifteen dollars from that man.I left him my watch and my old house keys,I don't like folks thinking that I'd stealThen I thanked him as he was sleeping,And I headed out for Bakersfield.Songtexte[Chorus]You don't know me but you don't like me,You say you care less how I feelHow many of you that sit and judge meEver walked the streets of BakersfieldHow many of you that sit and judge meEver walked the streets of Bakersfield...
