Well, sittin' in the depot long before the break of day |
|
I just bought my ticket, lord i hope the bus ain't late |
|
I'll have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the microwave |
|
Now i'm gonna see my baby if it's the last thing i ever do |
|
Got this sittin' in the station sick and tired of waitin' |
|
Continental trailways blues |
|
Well rollin' out for houston, man we're finally rollin' now |
|
Try to get some sleep and listen to that highway sound |
|
I guess we must have stopped in every single little town |
|
Now i've bought myself a copy of the natchez mississippi news |
|
With the just pulled out of lake charles rollin' into sulphur |
|
Continental trailways blues |
|
Now, we're rollin' into houston, don't them city lights look fine |
|
Headed for the pay phone, hangin' onto my last dime |
|
Well, she says she's got a new man, son, it's been a long, long time |
|
Now i was standin' by the highway with the rain runnin' through my shoes |
|
With the sittin' by the road side wishin' i was inside continental trailways blues |
|
I got the wishin' i was downtown waitin' on a greyhound |
