Streets of Bakersfield

Dwight Yoakam

I came here looking for something I couldn't find anywhere else Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody I just wanna change to be myself I've spent a thousand miles of thumbin' Yes, I've worn blisters on my heels Trying 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 have sit and judged me Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield? 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 key Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal Then I thanked him as I was leaving And I headed out for 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 have sit and judged me Ever walked 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 have sit and judged me Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield? How many of you have sit and judged me Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
