Continental Trailways Blues

Continental Trailways Blues - The Hit Crew

Well I'm 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

Well I'm gonna see my baby if it's

The last thing I ever do

I 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 sleep and listen to

That highway sound

I guess we must have stopped in

Every single little town

Well I've bought myself a copy of

The Natchez Mississippi News

And with the just pulled out of Lake

Charles rollin' into Sulphur

Continental Trailways blues

I'll rock him now

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

She laid me 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
