Streets of Bakersfield Lyrics

Dwight Yoakam - Streets Of Bakersfield
D = xx0232 E = 022100
I came here looking for something,
I couldn't find anywhere else.
Hey, I'm not trying 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 care less how I feel.
But how many of you that sit and judge me,
E A (D E A 1st time only)
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
INSTRUMENTAL
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 old house keys,
Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal.
Then I thanked him as I was leaving,
And I headed out for Bakersfield.
*REPEAT CHORUS* (x2)
How many of you that sit and judge me,
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
