lyrics

GREYHOUND BUS
lyrics & music by Steve Blodgett

you were running all around
so I knew that I had to leave this town
I was feeling kinda grim
thought I'd leave the driving up to him

I put my toothbrush in a bag
I went a-walking down the street
laid my money on the counter
and I got myself a seat
and I was in the night on a Greyhound bus without you
in the night on a Greyhound bus without you

we were rolling down the road
on my mind I had a very heavy load now
I was blue in Omaha
thought I'd die outside of Witchita
I was smoking cigarettes
I was chewing chewing gum
I was gabbing on the phone
I was twiddling my thumbs
and I was in the night on a Greyhound bus without you
in the night on a Greyhound bus without you

I was deep in sorrow for the love that I left behind
I never contemplated what I'd finally find
I was deep in sorrow for the love that I left behind
yeah, I never contemplated what I'd finally find

I was lonely for awhile
then this girl she came a-walking up the aisle
asked if she could sit by me
so I smiled and said certainly
she was leaning to my left
and I was leaning to the right
I took that little girl's hand
and I held that little girl tight
and I was in the night on a Greyound bus without you

in the night on a Greyhound bus with someone new
in the night on a Greyhound bus I forgot all about you
