Streets Of Bakersfield Lyrics & Chords By Josh Williams

I came here looking for somethin'
I couldn't find anyplace else
Hey, I'm not tryin' to be nobody
I just want a chance to be myself

I've found a thousand miles of thumbin'
And I've worn blisters on my heels
Just looking out for somethin' better
As I walk the streets of Bakersfield

Hey, you don't know me but you don't like me
You say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

Well, I've been 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 off that man

I left him my watch and my old house keys
Don't want folks thinkin' that I'd steal
And I thanked the man as I was leaving
And I headed out for Bakersfield

Hey, you don't know me but you don't like me
You say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

Hey, you don't know me but you don't like me
You say you care less how I feel
But how many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?

How many of you that sit and judge me
Ever walked the streets of Bakersfield?
