Lyrics and translation The Coasters - Thumbin' a Ride
I
had
myself
a
day
job
J'avais
un
travail
de
jour
Pumpin'
gasoline
Pomper
de
l'essence
A
dollar
a
day
is
all
they
pay
Un
dollar
par
jour,
c'est
tout
ce
qu'ils
payent
And
I
just
can't
make
that
scene
Et
je
ne
peux
tout
simplement
pas
supporter
ça
That's
why
I'm
thumbin'
a
ride
C'est
pourquoi
je
fais
du
stop
On
the
road
Sur
la
route
If
I
could
find
some
money
Si
je
pouvais
trouver
de
l'argent
Id
straighten
out
right
quick
Je
me
remettrais
tout
de
suite
But
every
time
I
get
a
dime
Mais
chaque
fois
que
j'ai
une
pièce
de
dix
cents
I
spend
it
on
some
chick
Je
la
dépense
pour
une
fille
That's
why
Im
thumbin'
a
ride
C'est
pourquoi
je
fais
du
stop
On
the
road
Sur
la
route
That's
why
Im
thumbin'
a
ride
C'est
pourquoi
je
fais
du
stop
On
the
road
Sur
la
route
I'm
walking
down
the
highway
Je
marche
sur
l'autoroute
Sweating
like
salt
pork
Je
transpire
comme
du
lard
salé
I'm
putting
down
this
country
town
Je
quitte
cette
ville
Cause
my
souls
up
in
New
York
Parce
que
mon
âme
est
à
New
York
That's
why
I'm
thumbin'
a
ride
C'est
pourquoi
je
fais
du
stop
On
the
road
Sur
la
route
