 G             A7            
 Don't pick up Hitchhiker Joe
 C5                         D                                
 He'll slit your throat and cut off your big toe (I tell you)
 G                         A7        
 He'll make you smile from ear to ear
       C5                        D                
 Gonna lock you in the trunk for ninety-nine years
 
 Don't do it now
 
 Bum, bum bum bum bum
 Bum bum bum bum, bum bum bum bum
 ... bum, bum bum bum bum
 Bum bum bum bum, bum bum bum bum
 
 D               Em               
 I had a cousin, came from Vermont
 C                      G              
 Next thing I know that cousin was gone
 D                              Em            
 Truckdriver saw him picking up Hitchhiker Joe
         C                        D                   
 Now his spleen's on the sidewalk helping flowers grow
 
 My best friend Eddie called from L.A.
 Said we'd have dinner later that day
 I got the feeling and it's more than a hunch
 My poor friend Eddie was that hitchhiker's lunch
 
 (Refrain)
 Em                      C         
 Hitchhiker Joe ain't no vegetarian
        Em                     C                 
 If you see him on the highway steer clear of him
          F                       C                  
 He got a knife in his sock and a razor up his sleeve
       F                        C                                      
 And a chainsaw in his pack and he's gonna make you bleed... yeah yeah!
 
 ("Bum" part of Refrain)
 
 My girlfriend Lois called from Tallahasee
 She picked up that dude at the Spam factory
 That was the last time that I saw her smile
 My best advice is, "Don't eat Spam for awhile!"
 
 (Refrain)
