Digihitch has an [http://www.digihitch.com/road-culture/music-lyrics/ extensive list] of songs that deal with hitchhiking and life on the road in general. Only a small percentage are explicitly about hitchhiking, though.

There is a lot of '''music about [[hitchhiking]]'''. Let's try to collect it here :)

== Songs mentioning hitchhiking ==
* Heart - [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBfP63T0a60 All I wanna do is make love to you] - Heart unintentionally generated some controversy with the hit "All I Want to Do (Is Make Love to You)," a tale of an intimate encounter with a hitchhiker. The "Thought Police" argued that the song encouraged women to endanger themselves by picking up hitchhikers -- overlooking the fact that the song, like a romance novel, is pure fantasy.
