“Tight Wad Hill” is a location in Crockett, California where some people got high and did drugs. It may have been fun to those people back then, but the narrator no longer finds these things joyful anymore.
Tight Wad Hill Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Cheapskate on the hill, a thrill seeker making deals
Sugar city urchin wasting time
Town of lunatics begging for another fix
Turning tricks for speedballs one more night
[Chorus]
Making your rounds once again
Turning up empty handed

[Chorus]
Making your rounds once again
Turning up empty handed
Bumming a ride, burning daylight
Last up at dawn, Tight Wad Hill
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Making your rounds once again
Turning up empty handed
Bumming a ride, burning daylight
Last up at dawn, Tight Wad Hill
