Bus Driver Lyrics


I am a bus driver and it's four in the morning
And I'm pressing out my clothes beside my bed
Fourteen years been on the job and with many miles behind
Still I'm up at three thirty to make sure I'm there on timeAnd my car gets me along just fin, to and from the station
But my castle is this Houston Metro Bus
My first stop is Ash bury and that sign's been gone for years
But same the people wait 'cause they know that I'll be thereWhat would you say if I told you that I won't be by today?
Would you say that I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know?Well, I'm always there by five fifteen but lately I've been early
'Cause Judith likes to be in early to the bank
And she gives me conversation and a token good for riding
Says she's happy all aloneAnd then there's Charles in retail sales and I hope they pay him well
for the work that young man does
'Cause I've never seen the inside of a custom refrigerator
But I know that he's the first and last one thereWhat would you say if I told you that, "I won't be by today"?
Would you say that I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know

I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know, well and what do I knowAnd I wonder what they do all day and their respective works
Suppose they give money and take money away
And I'm just orbiting this town with the post office, my son
And I'm circling againAnd I wonder how this world would be
Well if I was never here to drive this bus around from Ash bury to Main
I guess this town would be the same but with one bus' less exhaust
But that bank and retail stores, they just wouldn't be the sameAnd what can I see from the limited confines of my bus driving seat?
Only me andI'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I know
I'm just a bus driver, well and what do I knowI'm just a bus driver, well they don't believe that
I'm just a bus driver, well they don't believe that
I'm just a bus driver, I say, "Don't believe that"
We're all just bus drivers and it's time to go home

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

John Brim (April 10, 1922 — October 1, 2003) was a Chicago blues guitarist, songwriter and blues harp player. Brim picked up his early guitar licks from the gramophone records of Tampa Red and Big Bill Broonzy, before venturing first to Indianapolis in 1941 and Chicago four years later. He met his wife Grace in 1947; fortuitously, she was a capable drummer and harmonica player who played on several of Brim's records. She was also the vocalist on a 1950 single for the Detroit based Fortune Records, that signaled the beginning of Brim's discography.
