    Lyrics
    I'm freezing cold hitch hiking through this dead town
    Ain't no money left since they closed the shop down
    I lived with a stripper and I... I just painted things
    Things nobody wanted to see so I hocked Rita's rings
    Sold all three
    So why won't this truck go any faster?
    I still need to figure out where I gotta go
    Rita's in the back of my mind
    I don't know what she's doin
    I just know she aint doin it here
    I aint seen Rita in nearly a week
    Man I couldnt stay with things so bleak
    where my body wants to be my mind won't go
    where I'll be tonight, I don't know
    I just learned to paint in school
    never wanted to work for nobody else
    didn't wanna work for a man who's just takin', takin', takin' give me a drink
    let's drink to my health
    There's nothing to see in this dead Montana town
    but if there's something to paint I got plenty of brown
    Rita's in the back of my mind
    I don't know what she's doin
    I just know she ain't doin it here
    She's as dumb as me
    But she got a hard hot body any man would pay to see
    She can retire when she's thirty
    And I'll starve my self, and I don't mind
    Where my mind wants to be, my body won't go
    where I'll be tonight I don't know
    takin', takin', takin'
