Intro
verse 1
Your old man got mad when I told him we were leaving
He cursed and he raged and he swore at the ceiling
He called you his child, said honey get wise to his game
He ll get you in trouble I know it, those bums are all the same
There s a greyhound outside in the lane, it s waiting for us
So tell him goodbye, we got to go west on that bus

verse 2
Saw your hands trembling, your eyes opened in surprise
It s ninety in the shade babe, and there ain t a cloud in the sky
I called you my child, said honey now this is our game
There s two of us to play it and I m happy to be home again
There s a greyhound outside in the lane, it s waiting for us
So tell him goodbye, we got to go west on that bus
