Story behind the song
A song about worried parents.
Lyrics
Did you thumb a ride? Did you jump a train?
With that crazy cute girl, like “The Subterraneans?”
You had one last snack, left a mess and a note
Saying you’d be back, and you loved us, you wrote.
And you covered your tracks.
I give you credit for that.
Chasing meaning and self-inflicted pain.
Did you thumb a ride? Did you jump a train?
With your mother’s wanderlust,
And your father’s malcontent,
Shake off this crummy town’s dust.
You never wanted my two cents.
Did you thumb a ride? Did you jump a train?
Didn’t tip your hand; must have been spontaneous.
As the weeks go by, me, your dad, and your mom
Are like amateur detectives in a stupid sitcom.
And we hope and we brood
For your damn beatitude.
Just a bored kid wanting to be entertained.
Did you thumb a ride? Did you jump a train?
[Chorus]
