    piker 流浪汉,可怜鬼

    俚语,来自pike,公路收费站。用于指过去流浪到加利福利亚州的穷人。

    piker (n.)
    "miserly person," 1872, formerly "poor migrant to California" (1860), earlier pike (1854), perhaps originally "vagrant who wanders the pike (n.1)" (which is the notion in Sussex dialectal piker "vagrant, tramp, gypsy," 1838), but Barnhart, OED and others suggest the American English word ultimately is a reference to people from Pike County, Missouri.
