[00:00.35] Greyhound - Harry Chapin
[00:11.90] It's midnight at the depot
[00:15.47] And I drag my bags in line
[00:19.94] Travellin' light I got to go
[00:22.43] But the bus won't be on time
[00:26.37] Everybody's looking half alive
[00:33.18] Later on the bus arrives
[00:40.48] They punch my ticket and I find a seat
[00:43.76] And we move out past the lights
[00:47.89] Come on driver where's your heat
[00:50.91] It's cold out in the night
[00:54.23] I keep telling to myself that I don't care
[01:01.70] Come tomorrow I'll be there
[01:08.52] Take the Greyhound
[01:12.08] It's a dog of a way to get around
[01:19.34] Take the Greyhound
[01:23.38] It's a dog gone easy way to get you down
[01:31.32] I'm tired of watching this night go by
[01:34.21] So I look across the aisle
[01:38.32] The window's frosted I can't sleep
[01:41.49] But the girl returns my smile
[01:45.45] She reminds me of someone I knew back home
[01:53.01] So I doze so it goes
[01:59.26] When you take the Greyhound
[02:03.71] It's a dog of a way to get around
[02:11.13] Take the Greyhound
[02:15.15] It's a dog gone easy way to get you down
[02:23.08] I'm wrinkled on my stool at the rest stop
[02:31.20] The waitress being cozy with the highway cop
[02:40.31] My coffee's tasting tired my eyes roll over dead
[02:48.50] Got to go outside and get the gas out of my head
[02:56.55] Oh to be in bed
[03:26.09] Got me driving
[03:29.03] You got me driving
[03:32.71] I'm on Miss Greyhound bus and you're driving
[03:42.57] But there's nothing new about Greyhounds
[03:50.24] And there's nothing new about feeling down
[03:58.15] And there's nothing new about putting off
[04:05.20] Or putting myself on
[04:11.48] Oh Greyhound
[04:17.85] Looking to tomorrow that's the way the loser hides
[04:22.94] I should have realized by now that all my life's a ride
[04:28.08] It's time to find some happy times and make myself some friends
[04:33.10] When you know
[04:34.11] There ain't no rainbows waiting when this journey ends
[04:41.14] Oh
[04:50.67] Stepping off this dirty bus first time I understood
[04:58.57] It's got to be the going not the getting there that's good
[05:06.48] That's a thought for keeping if I could
[05:13.48] It's got to be the going not the getting there that's good
